Lyrics
Intro
light dual guitar
Verse 1
[Male] Gate swings wide in the morning sunHerd moves slow through the open way[Male] Dust stays low as the work’s begunSide by side at the start of day (whoo!)
Chorus
[Together] Open gate, free and clearTwo ride out on the range once moreCowboy life we both hold dearThrough the gate to the wide before (yeehaw!)
Verse 2
Cattle file in a steady line[Male] Horses calm with an easy paceEvery step feels strong and fine[Male] Working together in this open space (yahoo!)
Chorus
[Together] Open gate, free and clearTwo ride out on the range once moreCowboy life we both hold dearThrough the gate to the wide before (giddyup!)
Verse 3
[Male] Sun climbs high as the gate swings backHerd now safe on the open ground[Together] Simple task on the well-worn trackShared in the life that we’ve found (whoa!)
Chorus
[Together] Open gate, free and clearTwo ride out on the range once moreCowboy life we both hold dearThrough the gate to the wide before (yeehaw!)
Bridge
When the day feels long and the work runs late[Male] We’ll meet again at the open gate[Together] Side by side is our chosen fate (haw!)
