The Cowboy Way
"The Cowboy Way"
When I was a little boy, in my younger days!
I would always dream of living, living the cowboy way!
Riding and roping, somewhere in the range.
Riding shotgun, on an evening stage!
One crisp cold morning, I woke up to see!
An old Indian, closely watching me.
He came from the shadows, with a story to tell.
This could be! The Indian from Hell.
He started to scream, dance and holler!
Then he pulled out, a white feather.
As he sat the feather in the fire.
The fire grew hotter, higher and higher!
I covered my face, from the heat.
Then quickly rose, to my feet!
As I looked around, all I could see!
Was an Eagle soaring, over me.
A shooting star, will light the way.
As darkness falls, this coming day!
