A Cowboy’s Prayer Lyrics by Brian Burns

0

Lord, I know I told you many years ago
That all I ever wanted was to ride in the rodeo
If you'd give me the courage to make that long, hard ride
I'd wanna be a cowboy till I died
Well, I've bumped heads with every wild bull from Dallas to Cheyenne
And every time I hit the dirt, well, I got back on again
But now I'm down here prayin' I haven't let you down
I think it's time we turned my life around
CHORUS:
Lord, I've traveled many lonely miles
Take my saddle, let me rest awhile
My heart is weary and my bones are sore
And I don't wanna be a cowboy anymore
There's a girl in Austin, the one I left behind
When ridin' for the money was the main thing on my mind;
I'm hopin' she'll forgive me for makin' that mistake
'cause all I want now is the love she makes
REPEAT CHORUS
Hang my trophies in the Hall of Fame
Tell all the ladies to remember my name
I don't wanna be a cowboy anymore
