Backstory:
This is a history of and somewhat of a documentary of the reason/purpose of cowboy songs. I think it will probably have a bit of an around-the-campfire feel to it, but could also be a traditional country song. If there were a cowboy movie or TV show it could work, as a sync, but it would have to be a scene in which they were focused on cowboys singing. Spaghetti Western Song.
Lyrics:
V1
Lonely Nights on the range
An Old West legacy
A way of life, resistin' change
Fading memories, of cowboy’s tapestry
V2
Ballads calm the cattle
Slow and steady moves the heard
Poetry describes the battle
Of the hard life sung in cowboy words
Chorus
Sad songs and cowboys
Have a long history
Lone Star stories are such a great joy
In the hands of destiny
Dawn breaks the silent noise
Trail songs are their legacy
V3
Cowboy culture kept alive
Life on the range, windows in time
Romance of the cattle drive
Old age stories preserved in rhyme
Chorus
Sad songs and cowboys
Have a long history
Lone Star stories are such a great joy
In the hands of destiny
Dawn breaks the silent noise
Trail songs are their legacy
Outro
Sad songs and cowboys
Cowboy life beats in their veins
The legend lives on
Drivin' the open range
Sad songs and cowboys
