Song for Jake
Dave Stamey

I AM AN OLD COWBOY

I DON’T RIDE MUCH NO MORE

I CAME TO THIS VALLEY

RIGHT AFTER THE WAR

I USED TO SHOE HORSES

AND THERES SOME SADDLES I BUILT

AND I’VE RODE AFTER CATTLE

ALL OVER THESE HILLS


STARTED OUT AT THE PITCHFORK

WHEN I WAS THIRTEEN

RIDING YOUNG HORSES

RIDING MY DREAM

AND THEM OLD HANDS THEY TAUGHT ME

ALL IT TAKES IS SOME NERVE

JUST THROW A LEG OVER AND RIDE WHAT YOU RIDE

FOR ALL THAT IT’S WORTH


SOME FOLKS REGRET

THE LIVES THEY LEAD


THEY STARE OUT THE WINDOW

THEY YEARN TO BE FREE

I LIVE THE LIVE THE LIFE

THAT WAS GIVEN TO ME

AND I THREW A LEG OVER

AND I RODE IT FOR ALL IT WAS WORTH

YES I RODE IT

FOR ALL IT WAS WORTH


I WAS BLUE EYED AND WINDBURNED

I WAS EVERY GIRLS DREAM

WILD STEERS ON THE MOUNTAIN

WHERE THE SCRUB BRUSH WAS GREEN

AND THOSE SOME DAYS WERE DARK ONES

WHEN THAT OLD NORTH WIND BLEW

I JUST GATHERED MY REIGNS
