Cowboys And Angels Lyrics

 (Kent Blazy, Kim Williams, Garth Brooks) 

 On the eighth day God noticed a problem 
 For there below Him stood a cowboy alone 
 Stubborn and proud, reckless and loud 
 God knew he'd never make it on his own 
 So God looked out all over creation 
 And listened as that cowboy prayed 
 God took passion and thunder 
 Patience and wonder then He sent down 
 The best thing that God ever made 

 Cowboys and angels leather and lace 
 Salt of the earth meets heavenly grace 
 Cowboys and angels tested and tried 
 I'ts a long way to heaven 
 And one hell of a ride 

 Nothin's changed since the dawn of creation 
 For you will find them together today 
 And only heaven above them knows why 
 she loves him 
 But he must be the reason she don't fly away 

 Cowboys and angels leather and lace 
 Salt of the earth meets heavenly grace 
 Cowboys and angels tested and tried 
 It's a long way to heaven 
 And one hell of a ride 

 It's a long way to heaven 
 And one hell of a ride.
