Lyrics
The Very Last Cowboy He watches a jet stream across purple sky His fences now interstates crossing the great divide Turbines in the desert paint the progress of man While the flow of his life is held back by the dams He knows of some places not yet scarred by man Where tribes of Cliff Dwellers are living off the land And a cavern or two which still show the signs Of paint on the walls from long ago times But he's the last cowboy riding the last of the range With a herd of old mem'ries like brands on his brain Like a dime western novel,he's out of his age The very last cowboy,on his very last page There are ghosts of the miners,their camps turned to dust The abandoned old railroads,have all gone to rust Those old cattle trails linger on in the sand Like a lone wolf he strives,against modern demand He's the last cowboy riding the last of the range With a herd of old mem'ries,like brands on his brain A little arthritis and a little old age The very last cowboy,on his very last page He just wants to drink water from a clear river run Sleep in the sage brush,watch the rise of the sun He's the last cowboy riding the last of the range With a herd of old mem'ries,like brands on his brain Like a dime western novel,he's out of his age The very last cowboy,the last line on the page
