Lyrics

Have you ever been where air is fresh
And the sky is wide and blue
Where cattle graze on the prairie range
And a cowboy sings a tune
Where meadowlarks call
And doggies bawl
There a place out West where I love best
It?s where the cowboy calls his home

CHORUS:
There you can hear an old cowboy song
With a (yodel)
That tells a tale of long ago
About a brave cowboy on the trail
And there?s a harmony that plays
Between the cowboy and the land
Where man and nature walk hand in hand

Have you ever been where coyotes howl
And sagebrush fills the air
Where horses run in the setting sun
Where you?re free from care
Where time is roped and tied
And held to a simple kind of life
There?s a place out West where I love best
It?s where the cowboy calls his home

CHORUS
