Here's Hopin'

By the way you watch the sunset I can tell

Soon you'll saddle up that ole strawberry roan

Bid goodbye to the goodnight loving train

And set off to blaze a new train of your own

And I know you'll travel light like you always do

But you'll always take a part of me with you

Here's hopin' there's an open road before you

Here's hopin' that your aim is always true

And when you're trying to outrun that setting sun

Here's hopin' that you do

I know you'll try to hold to higher ground

And stay one day ahead of the storm

But when a northern blows and the rain keeps pouring down

May you find a place to keep you safe and warm

They say every cowboy finds a home somewhere

But friend until your travels take you there

Here's hopin' there's an open road before you...

If the trail looks bad and you need to double back

Here's hopin' that you do
