Waylon Jennings Last Cowboy Song Lyrics

CAPO I
INTRO: D
CHORUS:
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year waltz
The music is sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
He rides the feedlot, clerks in a market
On weekends sellin' tobacco and beer
His days are spent surrounded by fences
But he'll dream tonight of when fences weren't here
The Old Chisholm Trail is covered by concrete
They drive 'em to market in fifty foot rigs
They'll roll by his graveside and they don't even notice
Like livin' and dyin' was all that he did
(KEY CHANGE)
This is the last cowboy song
The end of a hundred year waltz
The voices are sad as they're singin' along
Another piece of America's lost
E A B7 E (repeat and fade)
This is the last cowboy song
