CHRISTMAS FOR COWBOYS (Eric Weissberg) Tall in the saddle, we spend Christmas day Driving the cattle on the snow-covered plains. Of all the good gifts given today, Ours is the sky and the wide-open range. Back in the cities, they have different ways: Football and eggnog and Christmas parades. I'll take the blanket. I'll take the reins: Christmas for cowboys on the wide-open plains. A campfire for warmth as we stop for the night, The stars overhead are the Christmas-tree lights. The wind sings a hymn as we bow down to pray. It's Christmas for cowboys on the wide-open plains. It's tall in the saddle we spend Christmas day, Driving the cattle on the snow-covered plains. So many gifts have been opened today! Ours is the sky and the wide-open range. It's Christmas for cowboys on the wide-open plains. Recorded by John Denver on "Rocky Mountain Christmas," 1975 filename[ COWBXMAS XX |
