Zach Top - I Can Still Make Cheyenne (Cover)

George Strait's "I Can Still Make Cheyenne" performed by Zach Top.

Lyrics:
Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine
She heard his voice on the other end of the line
She wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him, it could be anything
And she always expected the worst
In the back of her mind

He said, it's cold out here and I'm all alone
Didn't make the short go again and I'm coming home
I know I've been away too long
I never got a chance to write or call
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
But I'll be home soon
And honey is there somethin' wrong

She said, don't bother comin' home
By time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man
He said, I'm sorry it's come down to this
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But it's alright baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
Gotta go now baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne

He left that phone danglin' off the hook
Then slowly turned around and gave it one last look
Then he just walked away
He aimed his truck toward that Wyoming line
With a little luck he could still get there in time
And in that Cheyenne wind he could still hear her say

She said, don't bother comin' home
By time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure ain't no rodeo man
He said, I'm sorry it's come down to this
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But it's alright baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
Gotta go now baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne

She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him, it could be anything
And she always expected the worst
In the back of her mind

Zach, thanks for bringing back the real country sound and stories. So much appreciated by true country fans.

[rods]

Zach is on the way up! from Bluegrass to old school REAL Country, he has that classic sound that everyone wants to hear. Listen to his Original songs too! Played the Opry a few times as well! Love this guy and hope he gets all the success he deserves! Takes me right back to the days when the radio was full of Keith Whitley songs!

[briankady]

I wonder if George Strait has heard this. This kid has really brought back the classic country sound.

[stetsonclawson]

Real country is an understatement. He will definitely have my support!!

[SaltySouthTexan]

Zach, don’t ever change, sellout, or be someone you’re not. You WILL have success…..you sing, we listen. Period

[Rob-yb]

I am 61 and man I am so glad, country still has a chance! Thanks for keeping it real!

[peterhoward]

This is country music. A man music and his dogs thank you so much Zach for bringing back what we needed

[RayHill-fi]

Zach thank you for bringing old style country music back

[thewinchester]

this legit made me tear up, best and most real cover i’ve ever heard

[DaisyBloomz]

Great cover of my favorite George Strait. Call your radio stations and request Zach. If they say we don't know him, say well you should.

[robsj]

His new release, Sounds like the radio is being played a number of times a day now. Sounds great on SXM.

[ConnieCoulbourne]

Zach is the best thing to hit Country Music since George Strait!

[lawrencesligh]

Thos young man is about as good as you can ask for. Problem is he won't get airplay cause he don't conform with what Nashville wants. Real talent.

[connieclarke]

Just love Zack and his guitar!! Sounds so good. No loud noise! Just a great guy singin good ole souns !!!!❤🤟❣️🤠

[howlandreed]

Now that’s a voice, some very talented young country artists around nowadays.

[anthonyreddick]

This is what we want: a new country artist who understands & respects, the old country sound, real country music.

[michaelgaines]

I certainly mean no disrespect for George, but this is the first time I’ve listened to this song and it actually made me feel the sadness it is due. Well done young man!!

[destinymendoza]

Wow his voice is so country .. He needs to be on the radio for sure . ❤

[brendenrobertson]

Zach Top is the best thing to happen to country music since Alan Jackson and the King George strait. This is the best cover of this song I’ve ever heard.

[robbudgell]

Zach is what country needs and this point in time, along with a few more like him. They need to get away from this bubble gum pop country, or whatever you wanna call it. It bothers my ears and hurts my soul when i turn to a country channel these days. He might not be one of those outlaws or Highwaymen but he could sure pave a new road of country music that will still hit home!! Love it!
