text: Just a worn out truck, a coffee cup
  And another night out on the interstate
  Its not exactly where he thought hed be
  When he reached this age
  There is an old man staring back at him in the rear view
  With a million miles of life in his eyes
  And makes him ask those questions he dont want to
  Oh, but it might be time
  Does a shooting star miss the sky
  When it hits the ground?
  And how long can a woman go on loving you
  If youre not around?
  The years are flying faster now
  So tell me how eight seconds feel so slow
  And I wonder where old cowboys go
  After the rodeo
  Theres a house and eighty acres he calls home
  When hes not on the road
  And a woman whos been true to him so long
  But lonely, sure gets old
  Lately hes been thinking bout her all the time
  And on nights like this hell miss her most of all
  His body and his mind knows that he needs to find
  A softer place to fall
  Does a shooting star miss the sky
  When it hits the ground?
  And how long can a woman go on loving you
  If youre not around?
  The years are flying faster now
  So tell me how eight seconds feel so slow
  And I wonder where old cowboys go
  After the rodeo
  Lord, I wonder where old cowboys go
