Rosebud County

5th generation at 78 and his family is all gone.

His wife was taken at 60, but that was long ago.

His daughter she works in Dallas, met herself a fine good man.

His son he’s out on the pipeline cause there’s no life in this ranch

He says bury me on a Colorado mountain where the earth it meets the sky.

Send me on down the Snake River, so I can see an Idaho night.

Turn me loose in the Red Desert where the wild horses roam.

Or take me back too rosebud county so I can go out with my boots on.

The price of hay keeps climbing, the price of cattle keeps going down.

It’s very rare on a good year, that folks even come around.
