Rock ‘N’ Roll Cowboys

Rock ‘n roll cowboys where do you go now?
From the final shoot out at the OK corral
Do you give up the chase like an old retiree?
Or do you stare in the face of new adversaries?

Night falls the coyote calls underneath a full moon
Hey y’all it’s a final call at the last chance saloon
Your time’s passed now everyone asks for your
version of history

Do you live in a dream or do you live in reality?

Rock ‘n roll cowboys on the old wagon train
You had your time but it won’t come again
You rode the prairie and you always stood proud
So tall in the saddle and your head was not bowed

Night falls the coyote calls underneath a full moon
Hey y’all it’s a final call at the last chance saloon
Your time’s passed now everyone asks for your
version of history

Do you live in a dream or do you live in reality?

Where are the leaders who’ll come to our aid in our hour of need?
And where are the great ones to lead us through battle to a victory?
Got so many questions, so little time but it’s still a mystery

Do we live in a dream or do we live in reality?

Night falls the coyote calls underneath a full moon
Hey y’all it’s the final call at the last chance saloon
Your time’s past now everyone asks for your version of history
Do you live in a dream or do you live in reality?
Do you live in a dream or do you live in reality?
