Last Cowboy Song
Recorded by Waylon Jennings
Written by Ed Bruce and Ron Peterson
[3/4 time]
A
This is the last cowboy song
D
The end of a hundred year waltz
E7
The music is sad as they're singing along
A
Another piece of America's lost
He rides a feed lot and clerks in a market
E7
On weekends selling tobacco and beer
His days are spent surrounded by fences
A
But he'll dream tonight of when fences weren't here
A
He blazed the trail with Lewis and Clark,
E7
Was eyeball to eyeball when Wyatt backed down
He stood shoulder to shoulder with Travis in Texas.
A
And rode with the seventh when Custer went down
A
This is the last cowboy song
D
The end of a hundred year waltz
E7
The music is sad as they're singing along
A
Another piece of America's lost
A
Remington showed us he looked on canvas'
E7
And Louis Lamour has told us his tale.
Willie and Waylon and me sing about him,
A
And wish to God we could have ridden his trail.
A
The Old Chisholm Trail is covered by concrete
E7
They drive 'em to market in fifty foot rigs
They’ll roll by his graveside and they don’t even notice
A
Like living and dying was all that he did
A
This is the last cowboy song
D
The end of a hundred year waltz
E7
The music is sad as they're singing along
E7 A
Another piece of America's lost
A
This is the last cowboy song
D
The end of a hundred year waltz
E7
The music is sad as they're singing along
A
Another piece of America's lost
