Lyrics
It's a fact that you?re getting older,
man don't it seem like the winters are colder
You get tired so easily and you can't stand the heat
That's just the old cowboy blues,
when you wear out your first pair of house shoes
you don't get as much done and work ain't as much fun
as it used to be
Chorus:
Still you want to ride with the boys when you here that noise
I swear it sounds like thunder
when they ride off the hill and down through town
you can't stand that thumb your living under
cause there's places out there that you ain't been
and you heard about cattle that's never been pinned
the hardest part of all is laying there at night and wondering
if you still can
Don't it scare you that the roads are shorter
and your old starter is starting harder
you finally figured out that you ain't made of steel
that's just the old cowboy blues
when you wear out your first pair of house shoes
you used to be afraid that they wouldn't buck
now you?re afraid they will
Repeat Chorus:
Still you want to ride with the boys when you here that noise
I swear it sounds like thunder
when they ride off the hill and down through town
you can't stand that thumb your living under
cause there's places out there that you ain't been
and you heard about cattle that's never been pinned
the hardest part of all is laying there at night and wondering
if you still can
That's the cowboy blues
the cowboy blues
the cowboy blues
