We Are the Cowboys

[Verse 1] The Texans are gathered up in Colorado The kid with the fast gun ain't with 'em today The cowboys are ridin' tall in the saddle They shoot from the heart with the songs that they play There's a right handsome woman on up around Boulder They got slick hardwood floors and a potbelly stove She swears I am someone she can believe in She's the best Colorado gal I've ever known [Chorus] We are the cowboys, the true sons of freedom We are the men who will get the job done We're pickin' our words so we don't have to eat 'em We're roundin' them up and then drivin' them home [Verse 2] Cowboys are average American people Texicans, Mexicans, black men, and Jews They love this old world and they don't want to lose it They're countin' on me and they're countin' on you The world will breathe easy when we stop the bleeding The fighting will end when all hunger is gone There are those who are blind so we'll all have to lead 'em It's everyone's job 'til we get the work done [Chorus] We are the cowboys, the true sons of freedom We are the men who will get the job done We're pickin' our words so we don't have to eat them We're roundin' them up and we're drivin' them home We're roundin' them up and we're drivin' them home
