“Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys” was written by Ed and Patsy Bruce in 1975. It appears on the Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson album, Waylon & Willie (1978).

This is a cowboy song in the tradition of Roy Rogers and Gene Autry. The combined charm of Jennings and Nelson romanticizes the cowboy drifter more than any western song, before or since.

The Western Writers of America included it as one of the Top 100 Western songs of all time.
