Cowboy Pride

Friend, I'm writing you this letter
and it's a long time overdue
you’re thinking' "Just mind your own business"
I wouldn't blame you if you do


You know our range is getting' smaller
I hear you're all broke up inside
But it ain't the Broncos that's going to kill you
It's just that damned old cowboy pride

 Hear you left the chin a nay ha

You know that makes me kind of sad

She’s a great old Spanish land grant

You’re about the best she’d ever had

But cowboys and corporations

Seem to naturally collide

And you came off the loser

With your damned old cowboy pride


Cowboy pride will always get a man through
but sometimes it will make a fool of you
Good women are hard to find
I'm talking' about the faithful kind


Now you're running with that waitress
and she's under age and wild
well your wife's the best there is, son

Would you leave her for that child?


She stuck with you through the hard times
Think of all the nights she cried
she become another victim
of that same old cowboy pride

Guess it's time to close my letter
It's just something' that I had to do
You see I made the same mistakes you did
before she fell in love with you
head on home, it ain’t to late, son
It's time to put the past aside
So you don't end up like me now
Nothing' left but cowboy pride


Cowboy pride will always get a man through
but sometimes it makes a fool of you
Good women are hard to find
Talking about the faithful kind

Good women are hard to find

Talking about the faithful kind
