Well you don`t see him much on the big screen anymore
The kids don`t ride along with Roy or Gene
And that ain`t really him with all those feathers in his hat
And some frenchman`s name embroidered on his jeans
Chorus:
But he`s still out there ridin` fences
Still makes his livin` with his rope
As long as there`s a sunset he`ll keep ridin` for the brand
You just can`t see him from the road
Well he never learned to two step hell he barely learned to walk
But he`s worn a lot of leather off the tree
He`s had one or two good horses that he counts among his friends
He never drew a breath that wasn`t free
Repeat chorus:
Well he`s tall in the saddle short on the cash
The last to quit the first to buy the beer
Well he`s a knight in leather armor still livin` by the code
That`s made him what he`s been a hundred years
Repeat Chorus:
As long as there`s a sunset he`ll keep ridin` for the brand
You just can`t see him from the road
