Lyrics:

I have always had my heroes
I've loved a lot of legends
Many men in my mind are ridin' tall
But my cowboy hero heads off
To a man who rode a donkey
He's the greatest cowboy of them all
He loves all his little doggies
Speaks to them kind and gently
And he'll lift up any maverick that falls
He sees every stray that scatters
Like he's the only one that matters
He's the greatest cowboy of them all
Once he rode into the sunset
But some returned in sunrise
He'll call up all the riders in the sky
I'll get my roll together
Gettin' ready for that round-up
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 us through the wire
Onto a plain that's higher
He's the greatest cowboy of them all
Once he rode into the sunset
But some returned in sunrise
He'll call up all the riders in the sky
I'll get my roll together
Gettin' ready for that round-up
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 lead us through the wire
Onto a plain that's higher
He's the greatest cowboy of them all
He's the greatest cowboy of them all
