[Verse 1] He rode through the wild, in the sun’s golden glow, With dust on his boots and a heart free to roam. An old cowboy drifting, no fences, no chains, Breathin’ in freedom, out here on the plains. [Chorus 1] Earned his buffalo wings, now he’s runnin’ with the herd, Golden and timeless, in a world undisturbed. Soarin’ through prairies, touchin’ God’s blue sky, With buffalo wings, he’s forever alive. [Verse 2] He laid down one evening, under stars’ silver light, Whispered to the wind, “I’ve had my last ride.” But the plains took him back, where he’d always belonged, Now his spirit runs wild, where the buffalo roam. [Chorus 2] Earned his buffalo wings, now he’s runnin’ with the herd, Golden and boundless, his spirit unfurled. Roamin’ those ranges, so vast and wide, With buffalo wings, he’s got heaven in his stride. [Bridge] Now the earth is his soul, the sky is his guide, A buffalo heart where his old soul resides. He’s a ghost on the wind, in the grass, in the stone, At one with the plains, forever home. [Instrumental] [Verse 3] They say if you listen, when the dusk settles low, You’ll hear hoofbeats pounding, in the breeze as it blows. A cowboy turned spirit, untamed and free, Gallopin’ forever, where the buffalo be. [Chorus 3] Earned his buffalo wings, now he’s runnin’ with the herd, Golden and endless, without a word. Touchin’ God’s blue sky, where these prairies sing, With buffalo wings, he’s got everything. [Outro] Now he rides the horizon, where the tall grasses sway, A part of the plains, in an endless ballet. With buffalo wings, he’s forever bound, A cowboy, a spirit, with heaven all around.
