Cowboy Thing Songtext
von Tim Montana

All the mommas in the world out there will say
They pray their baby′s will turn out the right way
Stay away from the honky tonks, the rodeos and the bad ol' Broncs
They won′t wind up riding them fences
Driving old trucks with two ton winches
Desperadoes til the day die
And I guess that's why

Everybody wants to be a cowboy
A cowboy, a cowboy
Live it 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
Buy all your drinks when you walk in the bar
Even all the people out in Hollywood
Making movies about ′cha make you look good
Ain't no fun till you break a few bones
Knock off the dust put your hat back on
Flying up high burning gasoline
I think I know what they mean

Everybody wants to be a cowboy
A cowboy, a cowboy
Live it 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
Live it 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
