Lyrics
Radio crackled just past breakfast time, a remote clinic call
from the county line
The little workhorse quit with a sputter and a sigh, and the
team was counting on a fix before the night
I grabbed my case, checked every lead and light
Told them hold the fort, I'll be there by tonight
The map curled up beside me in the truck
When a country road gets stubborn you just buckle up
I'm the fix -it cowboy
Rollin' in with a grin
If the blankin' thing is blankin' I'll find where it begins
We'll test it safe
We'll take it slow
We won't guess and we won't rush
Then that clinic's back to helpin' folks
Well, mercy, what a fuss
Give a wave, give a cheer year let the waiting room rejoice when the machine
says ready everybody finds their voice from the ranch gate to the exam
room help is on the way
A little care and cowboy conk can save the day
The long drive started sunny blue from rim to rim
Then a wall of dusty weather made the daylight dim
Rain tapped hard, the windshield fought a losing game
A strip of silver lightning signed the prairie's name
The road turned slick, the wind began to howl
But I kept both hands steady and my eyes upon the mile
Past a windmill, cattle garden, one surprise jack rabbit I said,
hang on, clinic crew, this cowboy's got your gadget I'm the fix -it cowboy,
rollin' in with a grin
If the blinkin' thing is blinkin', I'll find where it begins
We'll test it safe, we'll take it slow, we won't guess and we won't rush
Then that clinic's back to helpin' folks, well, mercy, what a fuss
Give a wave, give a cheer,
let the waitin' room rejoice
When the machine says ready, everybody finds their voice
From the ranch gate to the exam room, help is on the way
A little care and cowboy calm can save the day.
The clinic team was waiting, coffee cooling by the door.
They had notes and careful questions spread across the floor.
We checked the power, checked the cords, checked every moving part.
No shortcuts and no hero tricks, just patience, skill, and heart.
A safe test, then another, with the readings lined up neat the little stubborn
troublemaker finally found its feet someone hollered there it goes and
somebody clapped twice i said that's one small victory and yes, I'll take the
pie I'm a fix -it cowboy,
rollin' in with a grin
If the blinkin' thing is blinkin', I'll find where it begins
We'll test it safe, we'll take it slow, we won't guess and we won't rush
Then that clinic's back to helpin' folks, well, mercy, what a fuss
Give a wave, give a cheer,
let the waitin' room rejoice
When the machine says ready, everybody finds their voice
From the ranch gate to the exam room, help is on the way.
A little care and cowboy calm can save the day. I headed home beneath
the sky wash clean and white with a thank you on the radio
when the sun set at my side the clinic lights were working the whole crew had
their say
ride safe fix it cowboy come back any day
