Dirt, Mud, and Dust
Bibles and Beer
Outlaws, Barb Wire, Saddles, and Steers
Its a simple life, Oh its sacred ground.
Hard times, High winds can't bring us down
(chorus)
In cowboy town, yeah cowboy town
thats were I'm from
Cowboy town
We wear our boots to dinner
Drive our trucks to church
Solid as a rock
Salt of the earth
We like our whiskey strong
Play our music loud
Get things done by the sweat of our brow
Here in cowboy town, yeah cowboy town
That's were I'm from
Cowboy town
Winners, Losers, Sinners and Saints
It's were a good man's word is money in the bank
Bad boys, pretty girls is the name of the game
When ya hit the ground, get up, shake off the pain
That's a cowboy town
Someday when I die and my soul is called home
High on a white horse I'll ride up on it
That golden chute will stand old St. Pete
He'll tip his hat and welcome me
To cowboy town, oh cowboy town
Son come on in to cowboy town
I'm gonna live and die
In cowboy town |

(Clint Daniels/Michael P. Heeney)
That anchor man says they're fighting again
Somewhere in the Middle East
The world prays for peace
There's a single mom, just got laid off
Went and lost her job to some foreign hands
In some faraway land
Last night in Oklahoma
Some twister took thirteen
And they're praying that they find the missing three
God must be busy
That highway sign went from slow ahead
To traffic's dead, thought it couldn't get worse
Then that Amber alert
They say she's 4, Colorado plates
Heading out-of-state in a Chevy van
It's hard to understand
You can see it in the faces
Of all those highway strangers
They're praying that God keeps that girl from danger.
God must be busy
And I know in the big picture
I'm just a speck of sand
And God's got better things to do
Than look out for one man
I know He's heard my prayers
'Cause He hears everything
He just ain't answered back or He'd bring you back to me
God must be busy.
That evening news, ain't much changed
Pretty much the same since I left home
Yeah, that war's still on
They found that little girl
She was soaking wet, half scared to death
On the side of some road
Them prayers work ya know
And the bloods and crips are at it,
And there's a killer drought down south
And old folks can't afford the drugs they can't live with out
God must be busy.
And I know in the big picture
I'm just a speck of sand
And God's got better things to do
Than look out for one man
I know He's heard my prayers
'Cause He hears everything
He just ain't answered back or He'd bring you back to me
God must be busy.
That anchorman says the fighting's worse,
Cities burn in the Middle East
The world prays for peace |
