歌曲歌詞
Another good cowpuncher has
Gone to meet his fate
I hope he'll find a resting place
Within the golden gate
The golden get
Another place is vacant on
The ranch of the X I T
'Twill be hard to find another
That's liked as well as he
The first that died was kid white
A man both tough and brave
While Charlie Rutlage makes
The third to be sent to his grave
'Caused by a cowhorse falling
While running after stock
'Twas on the spring round up
A place where death men mock
He went forward one morning
On a circle through the hills
He was gay and full of glee
And free from earthly ills
But when it came to finish up
The work on which he went
Nothing came back from him
His time on earth was spent
'Twas as he rode the round up
Exit turned back to the herd
Poor Charlie shoved him in again
His cutting horse he spurred
Another turned at that moment
His horse the creature spied
And turned and fell with him
Beneath poor Charlie died
His relations in texas his
Face never more will see
But I hope he'll meet his loved
Ones beyond in eternity
In eternity
I hope he'll meet his parents
Will meet them face to face
And that they'll grasp him by
The right hand at the
Shining throne of grace
The right hand at the
Shining throne of grace
