Jars Of Clay - Christmas For Cowboys Lyrics

Jars Of Clay Lyrics

"Christmas For Cowboys"
(originally by John Denver)

Tall in the saddle, we spend Christmas Day
Driving the cattle on snow-covered plains
All of the good gifts given today
Ours is the sky and the wide open range

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 in wide open plains

A campfire for warmth as we stop for the night
The stars overhead are Christmas-tree lights
The wind sings a hymn as we bow down to pray
Christmas for cowboys in a wide open range

Tall in the saddle we spend Christmas Day
Driving the cattle on the snow-covered plains
So many gifts are opened today
Ours is the sky and the wide open range
It's Christmas for cowboys in the wide open plains
