Ridin' across the plains, racin' for the mountains
The wind's at my back, I'm headin' for the sun
Injuns to the left, cowboys to the right
Flyin arrows, speedin' bullets
Keep you up at night
It's the same ol' story
It's written in the stars above
It's the same ol' story, the same ol' glory
And the same ol' love
Crawlin' thru the desert on my hands and knees
Searchin' for the shade and prayin' for a breeze
We're burnin' in the south sun, freezin' in the north
Catch you in between and toss you back and forth
It's the same ol' story
It's written in the stars above
It's the same ol' story, the same ol' glory
And the same ol' love
Me and ol' Zak out on a vagabond's roost
Runnin' thru the downpour, my God they turned us loose
There's a posse at the front door, bandits at the back
Lock the door behind you and jump back in the sack
It's the same ol' story
It's written in the stars above
It's the same ol' story, same ol' glory
And the same ol' same ol'
It's the same ol' story
There's really nothing we can do
It's the same ol' story
Written in the stars for you
Just for you
