A Cowboys Prayer Lyrics

Lord, I know I told you many years ago, That all I ever wanted was to ride in the rodeo. If you'd give me the courage to make that long, hard ride, I'd wanna be a cowboy till I died. Well, I've bumped heads with every wild bull from Fort Worth to Cheyenne. And every time I hit the dirt, well, I got back on again. But now I'm down here hopin' I don't let you down, I think it's time we turned my life around. Lord, I've traveled many lonely miles: Take my saddle, let me rest awhile. My heart is weary and my bones are sore, And I don't wanna be a cowboy anymore. Well there's a girl in San Antone, the one I left behind, When ridin' for the money was the first thing on my mind; I'm hopin' she'll forgive me for makin' that mistake, 'Cause all I want now is the love she makes. Lord, I've traveled many lonely miles: Take my saddle, let me rest awhile. My heart is weary and my bones are sore, And I don't wanna be a cowboy anymore. My heart is weary and my bones are sore. Hang my trophies in the Hall of Fame; Tell all the ladies to remember my name; I don't wanna be a cowboy anymore.
