That's the Way It Is Out West

Riding out on the prairie
A lonesome cowboy rides at night
He's singing low to soothe his cattle
While the stars are shinning bright
That's the way it is out west

He sleeps with one eye open
Not knowing what comes next
One hand always near his six gun
Cause that's the way it is out west
That's the way it is out west

That's the way of the cowboy
He ropes and rides for his pay
You know a cowboy's got to do his best
Cause that's the way it is out west
That's the way it is out west

I wonder where he's going
I wonder where he's been
I wonder if he'll keep riding on
And if he'll be this way again
That's the way it is out west
