Lord I'm just a cowboy and you know cowboy ways
You probably look at guys like me the way I look at strays
You know the kind that wonder off
Away from all the herd I was truly lost myself
Until I found the word
My church is the great out of doors
My song is natures sound
The sky is my cathedral
My alter is the ground
You must be fond of mavericks
Cause you made 'em wild and free
So I know you've got a place up there
For old cowboys like me
Don't think that I don't love you
Because I'm not herd bound
Its just that I'm uncomfortable
With other folks around
I know You're all around me
I see you every day
Its just that I don't go to church
Where other people pray
My church is the great out of doors
My song is natures sound
The sky is my cathedral
My alter is the ground
You must be fond of mavericks
Cause you made 'em wild and free
So I know you've got a place up there
For old cowboys like me
You must be fond of mavericks
Cause you made 'em wild and free
So I know you've got a place up there
For old cowboys like m-e
