| George Strait – I Can Still Make Cheyenne Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
One of the greatest country songs of all time! This is a man caught between two worlds. A world of 'rodeo' and a world society tells him he needs to be a part of; family, home, wife and kids. Ultimately he cannot control that which consumes his life. He probably grew up like this. Listening to Garth Brooks, watching Lane Frost at Cheyenne Frontier Days and getting a new pair of spurs for his 16th birthday. I can imagine a giant clear South Dakota sky. It's nearing fall and a chill is coming in from the north. The corn is almost ready to harvest. Standing outside a diner in a public telephone booth just as the sun is going down our Cowboy makes his phone call. He is hurt for a second but he expected it from her. This is not the first time he has heard this. In a few minutes he will be back in his truck headed to a place he knows to play a game he can never seem to get enough of or win. Either way he has lost because this life will always consume him. But its ok if he goes now he can still make Cheyenne. |
