Radney Foster - Texas In 1880 lyrics

I can hear the wind whisper my name

Tellin' me it's time to head out again

My horses are trailered and the lights are shutdown

I'm long overdue for headin' outta town.

Gotta fever that they call the rodeo

Just enough winners and make the next show

Sometimes you make eight sometimes you hit dirt

Go on pin another number to the back of my shirt.

And I'll ride that pony fast

Like a cowboy from the past

Be young and wild and free

Like Texas in 1880

Just like Texas in 1880.

Awe, from Phoenix to Tulsa to the Astro Dome

From New York City down to San Antone

There's boys that are ridin' for legendary fame

And our money's all gone but they still ride the same.

Our hearts are gettin' broken

And our heads are gettin' busted

We'll always believe in the things that we trusted

There'll be those nights when glory comes round

And we'll tip our hats and wave to the crowd.

And I'll ride that pony fast

Like a cowboy from the past

Be young and wild and free

Like Texas in 1880

Just like Texas in 1880.

Someday when you're older someone'll see

That buckle hangin' there on your belt

Askin' just how it felt.

And I'll ride that pony fast

Like a cowboy from the past

Be young and wild and free

Like Texas in 1880

Just like Texas in 1880...
