Cowboy's Last Ride

Saddle Up, Cowboy. This was truly your life.

Loving the horses, and always loving to ride.

You sat tall in that saddle, and you rode so well.

You were one true Cowboy. This anyone could tell.

Your Cowboy hat, you wore it with pride.

Those cowboy boots walked many a mile.

Now your life on Earth is over. God has plans for you.

So Saddle Up, Cowboy. This will be a journey for you.

God will lead you up to Heaven, and he will ride at your side.

So once again, Saddle Up, Cowboy. It's time for your final ride.
