God? I don't mean to bother you none
It's been a spell since I talked to you last.
I reckon I ought to thank you for all you do
Cause this ole cowboy has had quite a past.
I'm gettin' too old to drive these herds
My bones hurt and my temper gets short
But somehow these younger boys need this old man
When they get to missin' home and get a little out of
sorts.
As I lay here lookin' up at the stars
I can't imagine not bein' right here
Listenin' to the night critters makin' their noise
You're lookin' down on me so I have nothing to fear.
You've been really good to me
You've given me a lot of years to ride these trails
It's fed my family but not made me rich
And my youngin's love my tall tales.
I pray you'll guide me along with all these cattle
Along the way let there be plenty of water and feed
And keep the wind a gentle breeze and clouds in the
sky
Cause with these things, it's all we really need.
I'm gonna say goodnight for now
I always feel a might better after talkin' with you
Thank you for listening to this old cowboy
And God....I love you too.
