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
