It's in his blood, he was born with an old soul Could have lived more than a 100 yrs ago There's a rugged way he wears his skin But it fits him just right Don't cross him and you've got a friend for life Long live the Cowboy, Long live that American style Come on boys, make some noise Raise your glasses high, Long live the cowboy The truth is all you hear each time he talks And he's tough, not afraid to take a fall Short money in his jeans and luck keep him above ground There's a reason why his kind is still around Long live the Cowboy, Long live that American style Come on boys, make some noise Raise your glasses high, Long live the cowboy He loves the highs, lives through the lows He knows it's all about the ride Long live the Cowboy, Long live that American style Come on boys, make some noise Raise your glasses high, Long live the cowboy
