The Last Cowboy Lyrics

Walking along an empty road

Where the buildings used to stand

Fractures and dust collect in the bones

Of what used to be Paradise

The lone man

He stands

Looks to the west

Even though he knows

There's nothing left

He gathers himself

Soul and all

And prepares to make his final voyage

This is the last cowboy

He knows this truth

And it hurts him so

He will venture as far as he goes

Where nobody knows

Nobody knows

Long ago this land was prosperous

Men and Women

As far as I could see

Hands were dirty

For my family

Hard work was spent with friends

But oh where did they go?

As my life has died away

There's nothing left

There's nothing left

And I must venture away...
