Tall in the saddle

We spend Christmas Day

Driving the cattle over snow-covered plains

All of the good gifts given today

Ours is the sky and the wide open range

Back in the cities they have different ways

Football and eggnog Christmas parades

I'll take my settle I'll take the reins

Christmas for cowboys wide-open plains

A campfire for warmth as we stop for the night

The stars overhead are Christmas tree lights

The wind sings a hymn as we bow down to pray

Christmas for cowboys wide-open plains

Tall in the saddle

We spend Christmas Day

Driving the cattle over snow-covered plains

All of the good gifts given today

Ours is the sky and the wide open range.

Christmas for cowboys wide open plains.
