You can ride a hundred miles and not see one face And you can drink from the rivers and the streams And you can sleep under the stars No matter where you are- In a cowboy's dreams You can turn the radio on in your truck And on a station hear chris ledoux sing And every road that you drive down Leads you further from a town In a cowboy's dreams And everybody's got a horse and a good rope And everybody's wearing boots, spurs and jeans And men tip their hats with pride When a lady passes by Oh, I wish love was what it seems In a cowboy's dreams You can take a man's handshake as his solemn vow And when he says, I do, that's just what he means The only time that he might cry Is when his old cow-pup dies In a cowboy's dreams And everybody's got a horse and a good rope And everybody's wearing boots, spurs and jeans And men tip their hats with pride- when a lady passes by Oh, I wish love was what it seems In a cowboy's dreams You can ride a hundred miles And not see one fence
