I have always had my heroes I've loved a lot of legends
Many men in my mind are riding tall But my cowboy hero hats off
To the man who rode a donkey He's the greatest cowboy of them all
He loves all his little doggies He speaks to them kind and gently
And he'll lift up any maverick that falls
He sees every stranger He sees every stranger
He's the only way that scatters Like it's the only one that matters
He's the greatest cowboy of them all
Once he rode into the sunset But some return in sunrise
He'll call up all the riders in the sky
I can't wait to see him again

Gotta get my wool together
Gettin' ready for that sunrise That winds up where old cowboys never die
The trail he rides is narrow But it's straighter than an arrow
And he rides point for all the great and small
He will take my wool together He's the greatest cowboy of them all
He'll pick us through the wire Despair he'll take us through the wire
So bid him good bye, Vest who knew And he'll take us through the wire
On to that plain that's high When he slams his net
He's the greatest cowboy of them all Once he rode into the sunset
But some return in sunrise He'll call up all the riders in the sky
He's the greatest cowboy of them all Once he rode into the sunset

Twinkle twinkle, twinkle, twinkle Starlight still shines bright as night

I've got to get my roll together, getting ready for that sunrise
that winds up where old cowboys never die.
The trail he rides is narrow, but it's straighter than an arrow,
and he rides point for all the great and small.
Oh, he will take us through the wire, onto that plain that's high.
He's the greatest cowboy of them all.
He's the greatest cowboy of them all.
He's the greatest cowboy of them all.
