That's Why God Loves Cowboys

He wanted someone who loves the land as much as he does Someone who knows the blessings of a good hard rain Somebody simple and strong that He knows He can count on Soft as the wind You're bold enough to bless his name That's why God loves cowboys I believe there's a place in His heart 'Cause when the herd needs tendin' Fences needs mendin' He knows they'll work hard On his great big ranch called life 'Cause they love and take care of all His creations From the horses they ride To those broken hearted honky-tonk angels Ooooooh That's why God loves cowboys He knew they'd need room to breathe and freedom So He gave 'em Texas and those big Montana skies He was there when He heard those prayers coming from Cheyenne Right beside that young man on his last ride That's why God loves cowboys I believe there's a place in His heart 'Cause when the herd needs tendin' Fences needs mendin' He knows they'll work hard On His great big ranch called life 'Cause they love and take care of all His creations From the horses they ride To those broken hearted honky-tonk angels Ooooooh That's why God loves cowboys Ooh, those cold nights get lonely He needs more than just a good fire to keep him warm Ooh, there's nothing more holy Than the love of a woman to weather life's storm That's why God loves cowgirls I believe there's a place in His heart 'Cause when the herd needs tendin' Fences needs mendin' He knows they'll work hard On His great big ranch called life 'Cause they love and take care of all His creations From the horses they ride To those broken hearted honky-tonk heroes Ooooooh That's why God loves cowgirls Ooooooh That's why God loves cowboys
