Be A Cowboy

Be a cowboy All the mamas in the world out there'll say They pray their babies'll turn out the right way Stay away from the honky-tonks The rodeos and the bad ol' Broncs They won't wind up ridin' them fences Drivin' old trucks with two-ton winches Desperadoes 'til the day they die And I guess that's why Everybody wants to be a cowboy (a cowboy) A cowboy Livin' wild like they do out west Be the best, ride away in the sunset Kick up a little dust and you're gone Just like some old country song Every time if you had the choice Everybody wants to be a cowboy (Yeah, be a cowboy) Yeah, they treat you like you're some kind of big rock star Buy all your drinks when you walk in the bar Even all the people out in Hollywood Makin' movies about you, make you look good Ain't no fun 'til you break a few bones Knock off the dust, put your hat back on Flyin' up high, burnin' gasoline I think I know what they mean Everybody wants to be a cowboy (a cowboy) A cowboy Livin' wild like they do out west Be the best, ride away in the sunset Kick up a little dust and you're gone Just like some old country song Every time if you had the choice Everybody wants to be a cowboy (Yeah, they treat you like you're some kind of big rock star) And I guess that's why Everybody wants to be a cowboy (a cowboy) A cowboy Livin' wild like they do out west Be the best, ride away in the sunset Kick up a little dust and you're gone Just like some old country song Every time if you had the choice Everybody wants to be a cowboy (Yeah, be a cowboy)
