Lyrics:
Rocky, I'm writing you this letter I'm in the Sunset Home My grandkids went and put me here They got everything I own I know you're out in Albuquerque I saw Freddie just last week He said your eyesight's failing you And your mouth's too sore to speak Rocky, I've been thinking lately How we never got along How mostly I was right And sometimes I was wrong Remember that horse we bought in Tulsa It was afraid of the startin' gun You'd fill his ears full of cotton And all the money that we won Rocky, you sure were a good cowboy You did sure could rope and ride I always told you not to chew that goddamned tobacco You coulda listened just one time They don't show many Westerns on tv here They took away my gun But I still got that Western saddle The one we stole from Freddie's son Rocky, I hear that they're feeding you And it sure do make me sad I never thought in all my days You'd ever end up like that Remember that trailer in Minnesota That axle broke right in two We wired it together with four-by-fours And we drove the whole night through Rocky, you sure were a good cowboy You did sure could rope and ride I always told you not to chew that goddamned tobacco You coulda listened just one time So, Rocky, I'll just sign off now I've been up most of the night I just wanted to tell you when I heard the news It damned near made me cry Remember that gun we bought in Reno You shot Freddie right through the hand You wrapped it up in your best Western shirt Gave him all the money you had Rocky, you sure were a good cowboy You did sure could rope and ride I always told you not to chew that goddamned tobacco You coulda listened just one time You coulda listened just one time
