\u201cMammas<\/a>,\u201d Ed Bruce<\/a> famously sang, \u201cdon\u2019t let your babies grow up to be cowboys.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a song that makes a point of breaking down the challenging, lonely, alienating aspects of being a cowboy without ever acknowledging that not every baby grows up believing that becoming a cowboy is even an option.<\/p>\n
