Sunrise on the dusty plain
Boots on the ground, ridin' again
Old guitar on my saddle bag
Singin' to the wind, let the memories drag
Cattle lowin', river runs wide
That longhorn's shadow by my side
Through the storms and the summer heat
Ain't nothin' breaks a cowboy's beat
Longhorn, run wild and free
Under the stars, where you're meant to be
You carry my dreams through the open land
With the dust of Texas in your hand
Longhorn, don't fade away
Guide me home at the end of the day
Campfire smoke and a fiddle tune
Old Joe's laughin' 'neath the silver Moon
Stories told 'bout the rodeo
Hearts that broke, and seeds we sow
Trail winds hard, but the whiskey's strong
Life's just a verse in a cowboy's song
From Amarillo to Abilene
That longhorn spirit rides with me
Longhorn, run wild and free
Under the stars, where you're meant to be
You carry my dreams through the open land
With the dust of Texas in your hand
Longhorn, don't fade away
Guide me home at the end of the day
Banjo's pickin', heart's still racin'
Freedom's call I keep on chasin'
Through the wind, I hear your call
Longhorn spirit never falls
Longhorn, run wild and free
Through every dawn and memory
When I'm gone, let the stories stay
Of a cowboy's soul that rode away
Longhorn, run wild and free
