Throw a rope on a ranger, hitch up tight Head out in the early dawn With good hands beside me We'll do it up right Singing this cowboy song I'm gonna sort and gather the cattle today Head on to the eastbound train So come on, boys, let your voices be heard While we ride on the open range You can never throw a brand on a honest man Your ride is too close to the ground You could never doubt the power of the Almighty's Hand Just by looking around You'll never wander astray While you're living the cowboy way The alarm just went off I opened my eyes to a place so far from here With this no open range, there's no perfect sky Just one cowboy song to hear I'm gonna get myself up and get back to my roots For today is a brand new day I'm looking in the corner there's mud on my boots I remember the cowboy way You can never throw a brand on a honest man Your ride is too close to the ground You could never doubt the power of the Almighty's Hand Just by looking around You'll never wander astray While you're living the cowboy way Yippee ki yay, it's the cowboy way To keeps us rolling along Yippee ki yay, oh, we'll take real slow Singing the cowboy song Singing the cowboy song
