|
Well you don't see him much on the big screen anymore |
|
The kids don't ride along with Roy or Gene |
|
And that ain't really him with all those feathers in his hat |
|
And some frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans |
|
Chorus: |
|
But he's still out there ridin' fences |
|
Still makes his livin' with his rope |
|
As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand |
|
You just can't see him from the road |
|
Well he never learned to two step hell he barely learned to walk |
|
But he's worn a lot of leather off the tree |
|
He's had one or two good horses that he counts among his friends |
|
He never drew a breath that wasn't free |
|
Repeat chorus: |
|
Well he's tall in the saddle short on the cash |
|
The last to quit the first to buy the beer |
|
Well he's a knight in leather armor still livin' by the code |
|
That's made him what he's been a hundred years |
|
Repeat Chorus: |
|
As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand |
|
You just can't see him from the road |
