Tony Lee - Close to Heaven

With cigarette in hand
Looking to the morning sky
Gazing over the ridge
With a gleam in his eyes
In his boots he stands tall
A man of love and pride
To the end of the world
He'll stand by your side

It's as close to heaven as this old cowboy gets
He's a man you can trust a man of the west
It's as close to heaven as this old cowboy gets
An American legend one of America's best

He's been a father too many
Not a child of his own
And only they know the love that he's shown
It brings back the memories of war and strife
Brings back the memories of love and life

It's as close to heaven as this old cowboy gets
He's a man you can trust a man of the west
It's as close to heaven as this old cowboy gets
An American legend one of America's best

Look in his eyes, the smile on his face
A touch of his hands in the wide open space

It's as close to heaven as this old cowboy gets
He's a man you can trust, a man of the west
It's as close to heaven as this old cowboy gets
An American legend one of America's best

It's as close to heaven as this old cowboy gets
It's as close to heaven
As this old cowboy gets
