Lyrics
COWBOY AT HEART
James B. Twitty
I’m just an old cowboy at heart
On the outside I'm clean cut, yuppie, and smart,
I'm really dirty and dusty and lost in the dark
Just an old cowboy at heart
Rather be on the range today
Than pointing and clicking my life away
If I had a wish, lord here’s what I’d day,
“rather be on the range today”.
I think I’ll go ride, ride, the eight lane praire
God I’ll ride, ride, until I get weary
Lord I’ll ride, ride, and I’ll try to do my part
But I’m just an old cowboy at heart
This corporation living ain’t good
All of my life, I've done just what I should
But I'm a middle-class road dog still looking for food
This corporation living ain’t good
I think I’ll go ride, ride, the eight lane praire
God I’ll ride, ride, until I get weary
Lord I’ll ride, ride, and I’ll try to do my part
But I’m just an old cowboy at heart
