If this cowboy hat could talk….what would it say
Would it want to go back to yesterdays

When it was just a brand new hat
And it had a darker shade of black

When we both had many miles left to ride….
When we were both young and time was still on our side….

We have had some eventful times along the way….
If this cowboy hat could talk….what would it say…..

Chorus:
[Would it talk about the time when I got down on one knee
Would it talk about the time when she walked out on me

Would it talk about the times spent under those neon lights
Would it talk about the times when I couldnt get things right

Would it talk about how fast these days have slipped away….
If this cowboy hat could talk….what would it say….]

It knows all the stories about all the places I have been
It’s been there right with me and at times my only friend

It’s seen it’s share of highs and it’s fair share of lows
Certain things about me, only this black hat knows

The good Lord willing we will have some more good times before we ride away
If this cowboy hat could talk……what would it say….

Chorus:
[Would it talk about the time it got thrown out of the house
Along with the rest of my things cause I wore my welcome out

Would it talk about the time when we were broke down on the side of the road
Would it talk about the time when Jesus saved my soul

Would it talk about how fast these days have slipped away….
If this cowboy hat could talk….what would it say….

Would it want to go back..to yesterdays]
