Cowboy Poetry and Western Verse
The Carolina Cowboy
By Rocky Georg Rutherford
When I hear the roar of the rodeo
And I see the fans rooting for me
I pause to thank those
Who sacrifice to keep America free.
I thank God for our great land,
This home of freedom, the USA;
I thank Him for the privilege
And the right to live here today.
Now, I have my work to do
And I must do my part
To show what rodeo is,
And why it is in my heart:
I ride with pride, win or lose,
And I'll always do my best
To show a true cowboy's heart
Beats within my Tar Heel chest;
I ride to win, to be number one
With a pride nothing can destroy,
I ride for God, fans, folks, country:
I am the Carolina Cowboy.
