Time To Let Some Dust Settle

Words and Music: David Tatterson and Gary Clute



Verse1

From the Red River to the Rio Grande,

endless sky and wind-swept stage

I’ve scratched a living from this savage land,

running cattle on jimson and sage

I've been a rounder most of my life,

working ranches here and there

Just me and my horse on to the next drive,

a simple life, a simple prayer, now  



Chorus

My grey hairs tell me let some dust settle

About rode out my cowboy melody  

Done my last roundup in this old saddle

Singing a cowboy elegy....

Time to let some dust settle



Verse2

Mornings around the cook fire,

shaking off the night’s cold

In red flannel, denim and chaps’ attire,

shaving my face and sure  lookin' old

Just a cowboy hoping for another day

Breaking horses, shooting coyotes, mending fences,

roping, branding and washing in the creek

All done to meet my meager expenses,

my life played out in cowboy speak



Bridge

Nights in the bunk house, playing cards

'nd drinking with the boys

Never felt the need for a spouse

or any of life’s usual noise

Chorus

My grey hairs tell me let some dust settle

About rode out my cowboy melody  

Done my last roundup in this old saddle

Singing a cowboy elegy....

Time to let some dust settle



Tag

If you think of me, after my life’s ride

Remember how I lived free with no regrets,

nothing but cowboy pride,

Time to let some dust settle

Time To Let Some Dust Settle

Freedom & Strength

The Song is about finding new love and being accepted by the other person for who you are. It also represent what's missing in today's society.

Hella cheese, I got it

Boy do not play with me STOP (Stop!)
