There are a few around but they are getting hard to find.
Where have all the Cowboys gone
The men who work everyday till dusk and start at dawn
Working hard is his challenge not something he dreads
He understands you have to work hard to get ahead
His mistakes are his he owns up to the wrong he does
A simple man his family his country and his god he loves
A man of character you can value the promises he makes
A handshake can seal a deal it’s a promise he will not break
He doesn’t need a break every two hours he works till the job is done
He does what needs to be done before he goes looking for fun
Where have all the Cowboys gone, I don’t know we need them back
The strong independent man is something our society seems to lack
Boys are raised to be soft they complain about getting dirt on their hands
The spend their days building muscles and working on their tans
When it comes to promises they hardly understand what the word means
They have lost the ability to set goals, challenge themselves or even dream
We need to bring back the Cowboy he needs to ride in to save the day
Our boys need to grow up to be men we need to be able to trust what they say
