Tall in the saddle we spend Christmas day [C] [G] [D7] [Em]
Drivin' the cattle on the snow-covered plains. [C] [G] [D7] [G]
All of the good gifts given today; [C] [G] [D7] [Em]
Ours is the sky and the wide open range. [C] [G] [D7] [G]
Back in the cities, they have different ways,
Football and eggnog and Christmas parades.
I'll take the blanket; I'll take the reins;
Christmas for Cowboys and wide open plains.
A campfire for warmth as we stop for the night;
The stars overhead are the Christmas-tree lights.
The wind sings a hymn as we bow down to pray;
Christmas for Cowboys and the wide open plains.
It's tall in the saddle we spend Christmas Day,
Drivin' the cattle on the snow-covered plains.
So many gifts have been opened today;
Ours is the sky and the wide open range.
It's Christmas for Cowboys and wide open plains.
