In A Cowboy's Dreams
You can ride a hundred miles and not see one face.
And you can drink from the rivers and the streams.
And you can sleep under the stars, no matter where you are-
In a cowboy's dreams.
You can turn the radio on in your truck,
And on a station hear Chris Ledoux sing.
And every road that you drive down,
Leads you further from a town-
In a cowboy's dreams.
And everybody's got a horse and a good rope.
And everybody's wearing boots, spurs and jeans.
And men tip their hats with pride- when a lady passes by.
Oh, I wish love was what it seems-
In a cowboy's dreams.
You can take a man's handshake as his solemn vow.
And when he says, "I do", that's just what he means.
The only time that he might cry
Is when his old cow-pup dies-
In a cowboy's dreams.
And everybody's got a horse and a good rope.
And everybody's wearing boots, spurs and jeans.
And men tip their hats with pride- when a lady passes by.
Oh, I wish love was what it seems-
In a cowboy's dreams.
You can ride a hundred miles and not see one fence.
