The legends were young
when the range was still open
The cattle still roamed on the land
and they watched and they listend
They learned from the old ones
the business of makin' a hand
They still remember the days
with the wagon
working cattle in the old cowboy way
and though times have changed
the legends ride on
and they're still riding with us today
[Chorus:]
Buster and Shorty
Matlock and Don
Mr. Pat is still horseback still keeping on
There is a new generation
and they are coming on strong
but where would we all be today
if the legends of cutting
had not shown us the way
[Chorus:]
Buster and Shorty
Matlock and Don
Mr. Pat is still horseback still keeping on
There is a new generation
and they are coming on strong
but where would we all be today
if the legends of cutting
had not shown us the way
