You've ever seen a sun Sink low in a Arizona sky Or slept beside a campfire To the song of a coyot cry Have you ever woken To the music of a morning dove You know why a cowboy Knows there a God above You've seen the beauty Of a dewdrop on a cactus rose Or seen the Rocky from a horseback There peaks all capped with snow If you've seen a mother hold her child Her heart all filled with love You know why a cowboy Knows there's a God above Now he may not be a church-goin Man a member of any congregation But if Jesus Lives inside his heart He's a part of Devine Creation You've seen the beauty Of a dewdrop on a cactus rose You know why a cowboy Knows there's a God above Now he may not be a church-goin Man a member of any congregation But if Jesus Lives inside his heart He's a part of Devine Creation If you've seen the beauty Of a dewdrop on a cactus rose You know why a cowboy Knows there's a God above Every cowboy knows there's a God above
