Blue Eyes And Freckles lyrics

Song information

Artist: Chris Ledoux
Album: He Rides The Wild Horses

Lyrics

Blue eyes and freckles 'neath a white cowboy hat
His two bestest friends are his dog and his cat
He's one of the good guys, it's plain to see
A shore enough cowboy though he's only three

There's a cute little filly she lives right next door
She'd like to brand him but he's no green horn
She'll offer him candy but he knows her game
He'll take what she gives him then be on his way

Chorus:
Blue eyes and freckles and holes in his jeans
Out in the back yard ridin' his dreams
He's our little cowboy until the day
The 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
And those outlaws better find some place to hide

Vs 4
With tears in his eyes and a scratch on his chin
His onery old cayuse 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

Chorus

Well mama just look how our little boy's grown
He'll soon be a man with a mind of his own
And I know the hardest thing we'll ever do
Is take down the fences and just turn him loose

Special chorus:
Blue eyes and freckles and faded blue jeans
He's grown up and ready to follow his dreams
He was our little cowboy just yesterday
Now the fences can't hold him and he'll ride away
