We held a funeral and a wake at the Saloon every old-time cowboy agathered in one room Swappin' tales and lies from days when they were young buckaroos who always let the ponies run
I still see us the chutes, standin' in the sun Light off the shiny buckles that we'd won Farmin' boys from everywhere, a ropin' in our dreams Buckin' down the in old trucks and faded jeans
Cheyenne days to Fort Worth nights, we drove every inch of We often spoke our dreams out loud, sharing rooms and dirty The bandaged up, the broken ones, too to ever cry The one we won the big go around, the were ours to buy
Days were filled with mundane chores that kept us and mean But our nights were spent out dancin' with the fairest girls seen Regaling them with wild ass tales, that weren't that far from There wasn't a single asked that your old pal wouldn't do
And every year the drew us back to OKC Shoulders, Mahan, Steiner, Vol, and old Duffy And the dust had settled and the last go-round was run We up all night singing songs 'til every song was sung
The bones and broken hearts that led to broken homes And the trails we together, now we travel on alone And the we saw each summer, now we hardly saw at all A something's broken off each time a cowboy falls
Well adios amigos, see you down the I sure enjoyed the bullshit, cause it brought some good times And if you see pals we knew from days when we were young Tell them I stil saddle up just to feel the run
