Vaquero lyrics

You've been up in that saddle so long The West that they said that you won Has been lost for some time The young man you were has grown old The trail you've been blazing's gone cold As the West Texas night Too stubborn and stuck in your ways To ever let go of those reins So where, oh, where, oh Will you go, vaquero Now that your Cuervo's run dry? There ain't no more fences That need no more mending There ain't no more cattle to drive The sunset you're chasing Is changing and fading And leaving your shadow behind So where, oh, where, oh Will you go, vaquero 'Cause you're the last of your kind? You've been thrown from your pony before But the getting back up anymore Is more habit than thrill You ain't ever been scared to die But you're scared to death of being alive While your way of life is killed Somewhere there's a lone whippoorwill That's singing Where, oh, where, oh Will you go, vaquero Now that your Cuervo's run dry? There ain't no more fences That need no more mending There ain't no more horses to ride The sunset you're chasing Is changing and fading And leaving your shadow behind So where, oh, where, oh Will you go, vaquero 'Cause you're the last of your kind? So where, oh, where, oh Will you go, vaquero 'Cause you're the last of your kind?
