This is a song by Chris ledoux about what a true cowboy is. For those of you who are not familiar with western life, riding fences is when you ride a horse or vehicle down a fence checking it for breaks and stuff where animals can get through.

Now you don't see it much, on the big screen anymore.
And kids don't ride along with Roy or Geene.
And that aint really him, all those feathers in his hat,
And some Frenchman's name embroidered on his jeans.
But he's still out there ridin' fences!
Still makes his livin' with his rope.
Long as there's a sunset, he'll keep ridin' for the brand.
You just can't see him from the rode.
Well he's tall in the saddle, and short on the cash.
The last to quit, and first to buy the beer.
Well he's a knight in leather armor. Still livin' by the code,
Made him what he's been a hundred years.
And he's still out there ridin' fences!
Still makes his livin' with his rope.
Long as there's a sunset, he'll keep ridin' for the brand.
You just can't see him from the rode.


Now if you'd like to hear the full song, go to youtube and search for "Riding Fences" (You Just Don't see him From the Rode) by Chris Ledoux.

Ah, Tobie Keith is OK, but he doesn't compare to the real cowboy music. He's just a country music star.

Neat song. Also, ZOMG this guild didn't die?! Amazing what a little announcement system can do, huh? This update sure kicks the crud out of the "interface upgrade"
