The Last Cowboy Song" 1985 by The Highwaymen is a poignant tribute to the fading cowboy spirit and a nostalgic look at a changing America, with lyrics about the end of a "hundred year waltz". Written by Ed Bruce and performed by Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson, the song laments how the traditional cowboy life has been replaced by modern industry, like concrete replacing the Chisholm Trail. | Legendary Country Home

'Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys' Waylon Jennings & Willie Nelson tribute by Francelle | Country Rebel

Written by Ed and Patsy Bruce, “Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys” was first recorded by Ed in 1975. But when Waylon and Willie cut it in 1978, it hit Number 1 and became an outlaw anthem. Gritty, iconic, and half warning, half pride—this was cowboy life set to a slow burn.
