Lyrics:

                                                  
Verse

Life builds character, experience builds wisdom

Words he shared as he drank his rum

He said that's a motto to live by

There's no use in wondering why



Don't try to change things you can't control

Nature cures a blood-stained soul

And he had seen his share of sorrow

We can be here today and gone tomorrow

 

Transition

That's a cowboy's wisdom

 

Verse

Rain will come and wash away his pain

Since his wife's been gone, he's not been the same

So lonesome, he prayed to God out loud

He saw a small opening in a cloud


At that moment he felt her there

He knew God had heard his prayer

The rain made him feel alive

'Cause he could feel her love inside

 

Transition

Thankful for his Cowboy wisdom

 

Chorus

He rode the plains and the mountainside

Living off the land gave him a sense of pride

He prayed that when it was his turn to die

He'd be ridin' the trail and that night he'd lie

Underneath the tree, with a nearby stream

Close to the earth, that's a cowboy dream

He holds on to that cowboy wisdom


[Instrumental Bridge]

 

Verse

Working hard is a cowboy's life

It was easier when he had a wife

She kept him warm on those cold, cold nights

Until then, there wasn't much comfort in sight


He thanked the Lord as he bowed his head

And that night when he went to bed

He counted stars but one was extra bright

His faith in God was his guiding light


Transition

That is a cowboy's wisdom

 

Instrumental

 

Chorus

He rode the plains and the mountainside

Living off the land gave him a sense of pride

He prayed that when it was his turn to die

He'd be ridin' the trail and that night he'd lie

Underneath the tree, with a nearby stream

Close to the earth, that's a cowboy dream

He holds on to that cowboy wisdom

 

Outro

And as he closed his eyes that night

In a gentle rain, his soul took flight

Guided by that cowboy wisdom

Guided by that cowboy wisdom
