Lyrics Ned LeDoux – Forever A Cowboy

He works by the seasons, not a clock on the wall
Stacking hay in the summer, shipping calves in the fall
Rides proud for the brand, he ain’t one to complain
Never has much to say, always thankful for the rain

Forever a cowboy he defines the word grit
His only bad habit he don’t know when to quit
Free as the spirit that runs through his veins
Forever a cowboy he will remain

Now he’s out mending fences in all kind of ways
The sun rises and sets and hes checking for strays
Knows how to sort things out in all kinds of weather
Through the good and the bad with a soul made of leather

Forever a cowboy he defines the word grit
His only bad habit he don’t know when to quit
Free as the spirit that runs through his veins
Forever a cowboy he will remain

Heres to old Rooster, Woodrow and Gus
Silver screen cowboys but man they were tough
Salt of the earth in the saddle he sings
About stories and places where cowboy is king

Forever a cowboy he defines the word grit
His only bad habit he don’t know when to quit
Free as the spirit that runs through his veins
Forever a cowboy he will remain

He hired on the Double Diamond singing «Strawberry Roan»
He rides and Old Paint, he never felt more at home
Free as the spirit that runs through his veins
Forever a cowboy
