George Strait isn’t just a singer; he’s a cowboy with a lot to say. With a voice as big as the open sky, he brings to life the heartaches, hopes, and heroes of country life. ‘I Can Still Make Cheyenne’ is one of those songs that hits you right in the heart and stays there.
The song is about a cowboy who loves two things: his girlfriend and riding in rodeos. He tries to come back home after a bad day, but when he calls her, she tells him she’s tired of waiting and found someone else. It makes him really sad, but instead of staying and being heartbroken, he decides to just keep riding and head to Cheyenne.
