Lyrics
This is the last cowboy songThe end of a hundred year Waltz The voices sound sad as they’re singin’ along Another piece of America’s lostHe rides the feed lots, clerks in the marketsOn weekends sellin’ tobacco and beer And his dreams of tomorrow, surrounded by fences But he’ll dream tonight of when fences weren’t hereHe blazed the trail with Lewis and ClarkAnd eyeball to eyeball, old Wyatt backed down He stood shoulder to shoulder with Travis in Texas And rode with the 7th when Custer went downThis is the last cowboy songThe end of a hundred year Waltz The voices sound sad as they’re singin’ along Another piece of America’s lostRemington showed us how he looked on canvasAnd Louis Lamour has told us his tale Me and Johnny and Waylon and Kris sing about him And wish to God, we could have ridden his trailThis is the last cowboy songThe end of a hundred year Waltz The voices sound sad as they’re singin’ along Another piece of America’s lostThis is the last cowboy songThe end of a hundred year Waltz The voices sound sad as they’re singin’ along Another piece of America’s lostThis is the last cowboy songThe end of a hundred year Waltz
