His chaps are worn and weathered, As he rides with all his soul, A glimmer shines on his silver spurs, as the dust flies down the road. A race with time through rough terrain, toward the desert where he hides, While progress chases him his heart won't let the memories die. CHORUS: So at night he rides, like he's tryin to catch the wind. Deep roots like scars that he can't hide. He don't cry, In his dream he always wins. A cowboy never dies. His leathered face shows deep lines, like a map into his soul. New age has fell upon him but the past he can't let go. The future is his demon, A fight he'll never win. But the heart of a cowboy is planted deep within. CHORUS 1X VERSE 3- His hair was grey, he was 90 then, his hands shook when he'd speak. When Grandad told me of the days at Copper Kettle Creek. His voice was hoarse and raspy and all I could do was stare, into his eyes and I swear that I was there. CHORUS 1X
