Cowboys In Heaven
just the other day
my young son
out of the blue
as me
dad he says
dad are there cowboys
in heaven
well i thought
what do i do?
so i tippet back my hat
and said son i
know the answer to that
yes there are cowboys in heaven
they ride herd over the stars
they play there guitars
and sing to the angels
they water there white horses
with mains of silver
in a crystal clear river
there saddles are laced with gold
they ride were it is nether hot nor cold
they only open the gate
for those who ride true
and shoot straight
so you see son there are
cowboys in heaven
you better shoot straight
and ride true
or they will never
open the gate for you
