# #Songwriter and Performer: Chris LeDoux # E A E Blue eyes and frcles neath a white cowboy hat F# B7 His two bestest friends are his dog and his cat A A/G# F#m E He's one of the good guys it's plain to see A E B7 E shore enough cowboy though he's only three E A E There's a cute little filly she lives right next door F# B7 She'd like to brand him but he's no greenhorn A A/G# F#m E She'll offer him candy but he knows her game A E B7 E he'll take what she gives him then be on his way Chorus: A E A E Blue eyes and freckles and holes in his jeans A E F# B7 out in the back yard ridin' his dreams A E F#m E He's uor little cowboy until the day our A E B7 E fences can't hold him and he'll ride away. Vs. 3 Saturday morning he's up before dawn Grabs his cap pistol and pulls his hat on Today the Lone Ranger and him make their ride Them outlaws better find some place to hide Vs 4 With tears in his eyes and a scratch on his chin His onery old cyuse done throwed him again But a kiss and a cookie will soon ease the pain He'll mount up and be back ridin' the range Mama just look how our little boy's grown He'll soon be a man with a mind all his own And I know the hardest thing we'll ever do Is take down the fences and just turn him loose
