A cowboy works hard almost every day
sunrise to sunset and beyond,
but come Saturday night\u2014 it\u2019s time to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He mends fences, feeds cattle, bales hay,
in withering heat, frigid cold, cloudy skies and clear.
A cowboy works hard almost every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Obeys the boss, always yea, never nay,
protects the brand and all within,
but come Saturday night\u2014 it\u2019s time to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prevents cattle from being prey,
Cleans the stalls, cares for the horses.
A cowboy works hard almost every day<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Biscuits, bacon, eggs, coffee last to midday,
then lunch on the fly and supper at six
but come Saturday night\u2014 it\u2019s time to play<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When he gathers his pay
he pays his debts, bathes and dons his best duds.
