You Just Can't See Him From the Road By: Chris LeDoux
C F C
You don't see him much on the big screen anymore
G C
The kids don't ride along with Roy or Gene
F C
And that ain't really him with all those feathers in his hat
G C
And some frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans Chorus:
Am C
But he's still out there ridin' fences
Am G
Still makes his livin' with his rope
C F C
As long as there's a sunset he'll keep ridin' for the brand
G C
You just can't see him from the road How'd he ever learn to two-step, 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
And he never drew a breath that wasn't free Chorus: Well, he's tall in the saddle, short on the cash
The last to quit, the first to buy the beer
He's a knight in leather armor still livin' by the code
That's made what he's been for a hundred years Chorus:
