Robert Earl Keen, Jr. (born January 11, 1956 in Houston, Texas) is an American singer-songwriter. Growing up, Keen was interested in music, sports, movies and writing. He attended Texas A&M University, enrolling in the school of journalism. Disappointed in the College Station, Texas music scene, he began playing guitar and learned to read and write music, basing his style on folk, country, blues and roots rock.

D G D
Hot coffee on the dash board a cold front on the way
D G A7
Last night I was in Oregon tomorrow Santa Fe
D G A7
Up for two days runnin' and I'm feelin' tired inside
D... G A7 D
Down to my last dollar but tonight I'm gonna ride
Chorus:
G D
Silver spurs and gold tequilla
G D
You know they keep me hangin' on
D...
Pretty girls in old cantinas
G A7
Give me shelter from the storm
G D
The mile that I have traveled
G D
the places I have seen
D...
Just won't let me put a saddle
G A7 D
On this crazy cowboy dream
A gold watch in my pocket that my daddy gave to me
He spemt his lifetime working for a home and family
I call him on the phone sometimes, I see him when I can
Just long enough to check the binds and jump the fence again
CHORUS:
Bridge:
And I'll never put a saddle on this crazy...
Cowboy dream
CHORUS:
This song has a really good base line on some of the D chords. I've
indicated them with D... It goes like this.
D... G A7 D
