Born to ride with destiny Born to be a cowboy John Grady had a vision A dream that could not fail He was born to be a cowboy And ride the open trail He left his Texas past behind He knew he had to go Across the mighty river Down into Mexico A friend was riding with him Both of them too young Though solid in the saddle And handy with a gun With a vision of the future John Grady set his mind Riding far away From the past he left behind Born to ride with destiny Born to be a cowboy Trouble overtook 'em Just past the Rio Grande A stolen horse, a missing gun Bad men in a bad land One casualty in two The odds are never kind John Grady headed south To the dream he hoped to find Don Hector was a rancher He saw promise in the man Worked him mendin' fences And riding on his land But when the rancher's daughter Lit his heart on fire Trouble was a-brewin' Caused by his great desire Born to ride with destiny Born to be a cowboy Rosa loved John Grady It caused her tears to flow No matter how she cried Her daddy wouldn't let her go It's hard to say what happened And where to place the blame Did that boy disappear Or head back from where he came instrumental half-verse Rosa never knew for sure Her tears would never cease She lived her life alone Her father died in peace Born to ride with destiny Born to be a cowboy Born to ride with destiny Born to be a cowboyTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
