A cougar dog and a stout palomino
Snow fallin' on this devil's land
It ain't the life of a high-class suitor
But it's live-in luxury for a mountain man
It's twenty miles from town up the valley
To the little cedar cabin he calls home
She's waitin' by the door and the home fire's burnin' warm
It sure beats bein' alone
CHORUS:
And his Cadillac is a cattle rack in a 1970 Ford
Livin' free and easy he knows what he's livin' for
And a cowboy's first to tell you just how much he has been blessed
And with that baby in her belly he's gonna rewin the west
We made the winter of '93
Lost a few good dogs up in old Lost Creek
The lions they ran wild but we were runnin' free
Lord knows the country that we've seen
If a dolphin needs the ocean and the sea
The eagle needs the blue Montana sky
And a cowboy needs the land and the work of God's true hand
Those Rocky Mountains in his eyes
CHORUS
With that little buckaroo at his side he's gonna rewin the west
