There was an old cowboy
He was rough around the edges
Still slept in the fields
With the stars for his bed
A famous old rider
From the days before fences
Western plains / Open pasture
And, horses were king
Penny-Boy was his horse
And, his constant companion
27 years together
And, still holding the rein
A stallion with spirit
Love and devotion
His head held so high
When you called out his name
Penny-Boy / Oh, Penny-Boy
Well, they grew old together
The cowboy and Penny
Living legends of history
And, memories made
But, cities grow larger
Freedoms grow smaller
We're losing our horses
And, the old cowboy ways
On the horizon
Just beyond the sunset
The cowboy and Penny-Boy
Live out their days
Goodbye, Penny-Boy
Goodbye, Cowboy - Goodbye. . .?
