Ricky David Tripp - Until the Last Cowboy Rides [*] lyrics
When I was a boy, I remember Dreaming that one day I’d be A cowboy just like all the ones that I saw In the movies and on my TV Back then, we needed a hero But it’s harder to find one today We’ve hardly begun to admire someone When he shows up with feet made of clay When the last cowboy rides into the sunset A part of us all will be riding away There’s got to be someone who remembers What it was like in my grandfather’s day When they didn’t put faith in what passes away But held on to that which abides It isn’t really over until the last cowboy rides He always rode tall in the saddle And he wasn’t afraid of a fight But before he did anything, he had to know That the thing he was doing was right He never took roads that were easy And the truth was above compromise But the heroes our children look up to today Look them right in the face and tell lies When the last cowboy rides into the sunset A part of us all will be riding away There’s got to be someone who reminds us That it’s important to mean what you say To be able to tell what is right from what’s wrong While everyone else chooses sides It isn’t really over until the last cowboy rides The only way forward is back where we came To the values that we’ve cast aside Will we come to our senses in time? Will the last cowboy ride? When the last cowboy rides into the sunset A part of us all will be riding away I hope before the walls fall around us Someone with true grit will come save the day There’s a battle between good and evil ahead But the devil won’t be who decides The good Lord will be watching until the last cowboy rides The good Lord will be watching Until the last cowboy rides |
