"Gideon Tanner" lyrics

Now just look, the whole town has turned out today
To say a last prayer for me
And Lord only knows how surprised they would be
If they knew I could see them
And I could hear what they say
Whoa, if they knew I could see them
And I could hear what they say

Some say I was a good man
Some disagree
Some folks are sad
Some are glad to see the last of me
I know I was a happy man most of my days
And through it all, if I had a time or two
It was worth it to me

I'm the last of my family
So I'm taking my name
No children do I leave behind
To sing Rock of Ages for an old warn out cowboy
You can take away my body, but the spirit is mine
Whoa, you can take away my body, yeah
But the spirit is mine

Some say I was a good man
Some disagree
Some folks are sad
Some are glad to see the last of me
I know I was a happy man most of my days
And through it all, if I had a time or two
It was worth it to me

Some say I was a good man
Some disagree
