Cowboys and horses hobos and trains
G7
They’re gone forever from the rails and plains

Cowboys and horses hobos and trains

But Lord I’d like to see them again

Cowboys don’t ride anymore on the range
G7
Tattered old hobos no longer catch trains

Six-guns and saddles handouts and stew

They’re gone forever from a life that we knew
F

The rails stand silent they’re coated with rust
G7
The bunkhouse is empty all covered with dust
C

And a ghostly voice sings refrains of Cattle Call
G7

And echoes fade on the old Cannon Ball

Cowboys and horses hobos and trains

They’re gone forever from the rails and plains

Cowboys and horses hobos and trains

But Lord I’d like to see them again

The sun is setting on a time long ago
G7
On cowboys and horses on trains and hobos
C

And the pages of time they turn so endlessly
G7

And the things we love are just memories

Like Cowboys and horses hobos and trains

They’re gone forever from the rails and plains

Cowboys and horses hobos and trains

But Lord I’d like to see them again

Oh what I’d give to see them again
