A Cowboy's Prayer, Promise Land

(альбом: One Light Town - 2019)

Rodeo's all gone from this old cowboy
He'll be leaving friends and family here behind
In a long drought he'll be crossing over Jordan
And Jesus called him home, it was his time

And if Heaven needs a cowboy
They're getting the top hand
One good horse on a thousand hills
He'll be riding for the brand
And if the pearly gates can't hold the cattle
He'll get 'em roped and tied
I hope there's a piece of the Promised Land for cowboys when they die

Left his saddle to my sister, gave his spurs to my firstborn
And I know I should rejoice, but still my heart it has been torn
And I know he will be smiling when he sees his dad again
And his mama with her loving arms will welcome him right in

And if Heaven needs a cowboy
They're getting the top hand
One good horse on a thousand hills
He'll be riding for the brand
And if the pearly gates can't hold the cattle
He'll get 'em roped and tied
I hope there's a piece of the Promised Land for cowboys when they die

And if Heaven needs a cowboy
They're getting the top hand
One good horse on a thousand hills
He'll be riding for the brand
And if the pearly gates can't hold the cattle
He'll get 'em roped and tied
I hope there's a piece of the Promised Land for cowboys when they die
I pray there's a piece of the Promised Land for cowboys when they die
I know there's a piece in the Promised Land for cowboys when they die
