Cowboys and Angels

[Intro]

On the eighth day, God noticed a problem

For there below Him, stood a cowboy alone

Stubborn and proud, reckless and loud

God knew he'd never make it on his own

[Verse 1]

So God looked out all over creation

And listened as that cowboy prayed

God took passion and thunder, patience and wonder

Then He sent down the best thing that God ever made

[Chorus]

Cowboys and angels, leather and lace

Salt of the earth, meets heavenly grace

Cowboys and angels, tested and tried

It's a long way to heaven, and one hell of a ride

[Verse 2]

Nothin's changed since the dawn of creation

For you will find them together today

And only heaven above 'em, knows why she loves him

But he must be the reason, she don't fly away

[Chorus]

Cowboys and angels, leather and lace

Salt of the earth, meets heavenly grace

Cowboys and angels, tested and tried

It's a long way to heaven, and one hell of a ride

[Outro]

It's a long way to heaven, and one hell of a ride
