They say great grandpa never hid those coins under his bed/ He dug a hole behind the wood shed and stashed ‘em their instead/ When those outlaws came to raid the cabin, they burned it to the ground/ Well, they might’ve snuffed out ol’ great granddaddy, but his gold they never found
Gone, almost forgotten
Something is lost, waiting to be found/ Searching for a treasure buried in the ground/ There’s a voice of higher reason calling from the ashes/ Legend lives again in cowboy caches
In a world where we have everything, but someone you can trust/ Deceitful lies and politics, truth has turned to rust/ My mind goes back to great grandpa and the stories that remain/ How he died defending great grandma and honoring his name
Gone, but not forgotten
Something is lost, waiting to be found/ Searching for a treasure buried in the ground/ There’s a voice of higher reason calling from the ashes/ Legend lives again in cowboy caches
Great grandpa never said much, so I’m told/ But, back then your word was gold
Something is lost, waiting to be found/ Searching for a treasure buried in the ground/ There’s a voice of higher reason calling from the ashes/ Legend lives again in cowboy caches
Cowboy caches
