In a little Texas town at a bar by the rodeo grounds
You can see him ridin' in every Saturday night
Well there ain't no hitchin' post
But his horse has got so old
He'd stay in front of that bar if he stayed all night

He sits on the same 'ol stood
Watchin' the boys play pool
Holdin' a can of Pearl beer in his calloused hand
We don't know how old he is
He never had no wife or kids
But they say he never back down from any man

He once had spurs that jingled jangled
He once had girls that loved to tango
With a handsome young cowboy so long and so tall
Well it's been years but I'm sure he recalls them all

He's never owned a suit
And there's holes in both his boots
And he don't give a damn unless it rains
Well he lives his life that way
But he still recalls the days
When every cowboy in Texas knew his name
