Cowboy Christmastime in The Great Basin
"Cowboy Christmastime in The Great Basin"
"When folks think of Christmas, what comes to mind is
Cold snow, fires a 'blazin, tacky sweaters, big dinners, and presents under a decorated tree
But to the Great Basin Buckaroo
Christmas also comes early
'Round July Fourth weekend
Drivin down the road pullin 32 inch trailers and gear in the back
Hopin he'll make it, in time for slack
He'll drive into town, make an 8 or a 9.3 ride
Can't stick around as he's got to get
To the 4th of July fair in the next ole town
Again, pack 'an unpack gear in the heat
But it is his life that he loves an a way to make ends meet
Lil Great Basin towns celebratin
Our country's birthday 'an cowboy Christmas Day
Some of our hometown buckaroos are out on the front lines, defending the land they love 'an ranch on
But we hope they'll be here next time
Yep it is July again
An along with the reunions, fairs, and picnics,
It is also time for celebratin the freedom to ride and to ranch on this land
But it's also time for.
Cowboy Christmas in the Great Basin"
