Well you don't see him much on the big screen anymore   The kids don't ride along with Roy or Gene   And that ain't really him with all those feathers in his hat   And some frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans      Chorus:      But he's still out there ridin' fences    Still makes his livin' with his rope   As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand   You just can't see him from the road      Well he never learned to two step hell he barely learned to walk   But he's worn a lot of leather off the tree   He's had one or two good horses that he counts among his friends   He never drew a breath that wasn't free      Repeat chorus:      Well he's tall in the saddle short on the cash   The last to quit the first to buy the beer   Well he's a knight in leather armor still livin' by the code   That's made him what he's been a hundred years      Repeat Chorus:      As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand   You just can't see him from the road
