The harbingers of war with their nature revealed
If I can let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field
You gave me a reason to try
Turn the page I need to see something new
Like rabid dogs of warWith no-one wearing their real face
It's a whiteout of emotion
And I've only got my brittle bones to break the fall
When the love in letters fade
And we're already too late if we arrive at all
And then we're caught up in the arms race
An involuntary addiction
And we're shedding every value our mothers taught
So will you please show me your real face
'Cause I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought
We were one with our destinies entwined
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me the reason why-
Let me tell you, buddy
There's a faster gun
Coming over younder
When tomorrow comesLet me tell you, buddy
And it win't be long
Till you find yourself singing
Your last cowboy songYippee-ki-yi-yay
When the roundup ends
Yippee-ki-yi-yay
And the campfire dimsYippee-ki-yi-yay
He shalt be saved
When a cowboy trades
His spurs for wingsWhen the wrap my body
In the thin linen sheet
And they take my six ounce
Pull the boots from my feetUnsaffle my pony
She'll be itching to roam
I'll be halfway to heaven
Under horsepower of my ownYippee-ki-yi-yay
When the roundup ends
Yippee-ki-yi-yay
And the campfire dimsYippee-ki-yi-yay
He shalt be saved
When a cowboy trades
His spurs for wingsYippee-ki-yi-yay
I'm glory bound
No more jingle jangle
I lay my guns downYippee-ki-yi-yay
He shalt be savedWhen a cowboy trades
His spurs for wings
