 and tried to wash off some of

that dusty dirt

west texas cowboys all over town
with gold and silver, they're loaded
 down
just in from roundup you know it 
seemed a shame
and so my uncle starts a friendly 
game
high low jack, the winner takes 
again

and from the beginning my uncle 
started to win
 them Texas cowboys they was mad as 
sin
 some said he was cheatin, but that 
can't be
 because my uncle, why he's honest 
as me
I'm as honest as a Denver man can be

one of them cowboys, you know he 
started to draw
I grabbed a bottle, slapped him in 
the jaw
I had to shoot another, now he won't
 grow old
in my confusion, my uncle grabbed 
the gold

god bless cowboys, god bless gold
god bless my uncle, god rest his 
soul

the gold
