God Gave Us Cowboys
by Jennifer Nelson
God gave us Cowboys
for a lot of good reasons,
So we'd appreciate sunsets
and rain clouds and seasons.
God gave us Cowboys
so we wouldn't forget
that there's no harm in hard work
and no shame in sweat.
God gave us Cowboys
so we'd know what to do
with horses and guitars
and leather and boots.
God gave us Cowboys
so that we could see
in a pinch you can make it
on coffee and beans.
God gave us Cowboys
so that we would know
there's a difference between lonely
and ridin' alone.
God gave us Cowboys
so we'd understand
that you're signing a contract
when you shake a man's hand.
God gave us Cowboys
but only a few,
so if you're lucky and meet one,
well, that's God blessing you.
