...of bein' a cowboy,
and lovin' the cowboy ways.
Pursuin' the life of my high-ridin' heroes
I burned up my childhood days.
I learned all the rules of the modern day drifter,
don't you hold on to nothin' too long.
Just take what ya need from the ladies and leave them,
were the words of a sad country song.
My heroes have always been cowboys,
and they still are it seems,
Sadly in search of...and one step in back of themselves,
and their slow movin' dreams.

Best thing that ole Willie ever recorded.
It always helps me unwind from a stressful day.
And puts me in mind of Roy and Gabbie, Gene Autry and Hugh O'Brian and Hoss and Little Joe and a dozen other heroes from my youth.
The tv western has certain fallen from favor since those days hasn't it. In may opinion modern tv isn't nearly as good.
Opinions?
