Craig Bickhardt - Even A Cowboy Can Dream lyrics

rate me

He's not much to look at, a hard working hand

Riding that long lonesome trail

His hat's worn out, his boot's are worn down

He's tall and thin as a rail

He don't say too much, in the fire's glow

While the others are shooting the breeze

He stares at the stars, hand on his chin

And they wonder what he sees

It's something to do with a woman

Down around Abilene

It's long since over and done with

But even a cowboy can dream

Yes, even a cowboy can dream

Not that he's sorry, for the life he chose

He's roamed too far for regrets

The longhorns have led him across thousands of miles

And into as many sunsets

But when the silent nights, give him room to think

There's a face he can't shake from his mind

It makes him consider, what life would be like

If he were the settling kind

It's something to do with a woman

Down around Abilene

It's long since over and done with

But even a cowboy can dream

Yes, even a cowboy can dream
