The Greatest Cowboy Of Them All

I have always had my heroes

I've loved a lot of legends

Many men in my mind are ridin' tall

But my cowboy hero hats off

To the man who rode a donkey

He's the greatest cowboy of them all

He loves all his little doggies

He speaks to them kind and gently

And he'll lift up any maverick that falls

He sees every stray that scatters

Like it's the only one that matters

He's the greatest cowboy of them all

Once he rode into the sunset

But some returning sunrise

He'll call up all the riders in the sky

I gotta get my roll together

Gettin' ready for that sunrise

That winds up where old cowboys never die

The trail he rides is narrow

But it's straighter than an arrow

And he rides point for all the great and small

He will take us through the wire

Onto that plain that's higher

He's the greatest cowboy of them all

Once he rode into the sunset

But some returning sunrise

He'll call up all the riders in the sky

I gotta get my roll together

Gettin' ready for that sunrise

That winds up where old cowboys never die

The trail he rides is narrow

But it's straighter than an arrow

And he rides point for all the great and small

He will take us through the wire

Onto that plain that's higher

He's the greatest cowboy of them all

He's the greatest cowboy of them all
