Dream Little Cowboy
Dream Little Cowboy: A Musical Journey Across the Open Range
Lyrics
The sun has set over a western sky
The day has ended in the western part of the world.
A fire burns as stars go passing by
A fire is burning while stars move across the sky.
The lonesome cowboy plays his guitar song
A solitary cowboy plays a song on his guitar.
Across the prairie doggies sing along
Prairie animals, like doggies, join in the musical experience.
Another day another dollar
Expressing the routine of earning a living.
Life on the open range
Describing life in the vast, open countryside.
Now close your eyes and dream away
Encouraging the listener to close their eyes and enter a dream world.
And dream of someplace or somebody
Encouraging the listener to dream about a place or someone.
Dream and drift away
Emphasizing the act of dreaming and drifting away.
The moon up above keeps on shining
Highlighting the constant presence of the moon, guiding the way.
Lighting the path to your way
The moon provides light, guiding one's path in life.
And dream on little cowboy keep on dreaming
Encouragement to continue dreaming despite challenges.
Dream of a brighter day
Specifically, dream of a better and brighter future.
And dream under the stars of the night's sky
Invoking the idea of dreaming under the night sky full of stars.
Dream dream away

And dream of someplace or somebody
Encouragement to dream about a place or someone.
Dream and drift away
Emphasis on the ongoing act of dreaming and drifting away.
The moon up above keeps on shining
Reiteration of the moon's role in providing guidance.
Lighting the path to your way
The moon continues to light the path one should follow.
And dream on little cowboy keep on dreaming
Encouragement for the cowboy to persist in dreaming.
Dream of a brighter day
Specifically, dream of a future filled with brightness.
And dream under the stars of the night's sky
Reiteration of the idea of dreaming under the night sky.
Dream dream away
A final emphasis on the act of dreaming and drifting away.
