Riding Drag
Gritty young cowboys start out riding drag
Behind the cattle herd on the trail drive
The trail dust is brown and makes your mouth gag
Your big bandana helps make you survive
There’s no cowboy song that you even know
For all you greenhorns who live with the pain
Well this is my song for Slim and Joe
When your only relief is falling rain
Cowboy hats and old dirty bandanas
To cover your face from billowing dust
Thanks for riding drag clear to Montana
This old trail boss knows greenhorns he can trust
(Instrumental)
The chuckwagon cook bakes up sourdough bread
Greenhorns riding drag are served at the end
You young’uns round up the strays that have fled
For this trail boss, riding drag’s a God-send
When I ride by and you’re there riding drag
I’ll tip my hat to you as my true friends
When we reach Montana, of you I’ll brag
For you, riding drag will come to an end
Cowboy hats and old dirty bandanas
To cover your face from billowing dust
Thanks for riding drag clear to Montana
This old trail boss knows greenhorns he can trust
Gritty young cowboys start out riding drag
Behind the cattle herd on the trail drive
