The Cowboy's Legacy by Darrin L. Broyhill

Watchin' the cattle beddin' down
Sittin' by the campfire
All alone, so far from town
Feeling the pull of his hearts desire

Riding the open range
Breeze in his face
Watching the country change
The loss of the wide open space

The thoughts of times gone by
Pass vividly through his mind
Wilder, rowdy days
Have all faded away

Giving way to the wire
Holding him in and keeping him out
And it hits him hard, without a doubt
That he's lost his hearts desire

The freedom of the cowboy has faded
The city has made his image jaded
But the legacy lives on
As into the sunset, the cowboy...
Rides on
