The
range is gone
the cows are too
now citified
our options few,
So what's a poor cowboy
supposed to do
when his job is gone
and the land is too
The ranch is gone
sold off for lots
developers came
then homes popped up,
Now all we see is
malls and shops
the pasture paved
with parking lots
There used to be beauty
far as the eye could see
campfires at night
the sunsets free,
Call of the wild
nature's majesty
now all that's gone
just a memory
Cowboys get broke
like horses do
end of the trail
his days are through,
The cows came home
weren't nothin' left
the West done died
it's called progress.
