Well you don't see him much on the big screen anymore

The kids don't ride along with roy or gene

And that ain't really him with all those feathers in his hat

And some frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans



Chorus:



But he's still out there ridin' fences

Still makes his livin' with his rope

As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand

You just can't see him from the road



Well he never learned to two step hell he barely learned to walk

But he's worn a lot of leather off the tree







He's had one or two good horses that he counts among his friends

He never drew a breath that wasn't free



Repeat chorus:



Well he's tall in the saddle short on the cash

The last to quit the first to buy the beer

Well he's a knight in leather armor still livin' by the code

That's made him what he's been a hundred years



Repeat chorus:



As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand

You just can't see him from the road
