An old pickup truck

Means you're down on your luck, anymore

And boots and straw hats

Are just a thing of the past, anymore

And ever since Waylon I can't find no one

To buy into sad country songs

Now tell me who's gonna ride us away

When the last cowboy's gone?

Is there a place I can find

Any three quarter time, anymore

Is there a dirty jukebox

That spins on a dime, anymore

They changed all the words

And the cowgirls they all sing alone

But tell me who's gonna ride them away

When the last cowboy's gone?

If John Wayne, Gene and Roy

Are now just some cowboys

That yesterday stampeded on

Then tell me who's gonna ride us away

Who's gonna do it that way

Does everything good have to change

'Til the last cowboy's gone?
