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