The Last Cowboy Lyrics by Shane Wyatt

The Last Cowboy

2008

He rode a golden horse with a golden heart
A forty five strapped on his hip
I was twelve years old when he passed on
Sometimes I think that he still lives
He was the last cowboy in Oklahoma
The last true pioneer's son
He was the last cowboy in Oklahoma
Never be another one
When I was old enough to hold a gun
He taught me how to ride and shoot
And I was proud that I was his grandson
But could I ever fill the boots?
He was the last cowboy in Oklahoma
The last true pioneer's son
He was the last cowboy in Oklahoma
Never be another one
When I was old enough to hold a gun
He taught me how to ride and shoot
And I was proud that I was his grandson
But could I ever fill the boots?
He said to work that gun
'Til it's a part of your own hand
Don't hesitate to defend
Your family or your land
Oh, and I tried to hang on
To every word he said to me
So he wouldn't have to be
Oh, oh, oh
He was the last cowboy in Oklahoma
The last true pioneer's son
He was the last cowboy in Oklahoma
Never be another one
When I was old enough to hold a gun
He taught me how to ride and shoot
And I was proud that I was his grandson
But could I ever fill the boots?
Never be another one
Never be another one
Or am I the only one?
