[Intro]
G
[Chorus]
GRidin' on the range in the cold makes him wish he was a Aplumber
DSleepin' on the ground by the fire with his horse is a Gbummer
But Gdrivin' into town once a month to find a woman's even Adumber
Oh but he Ddoes it cause he's a Gcowboy
[Verse 1]
Hey a Gfull grown whale could drown when the rain starts a Afallin'
And Dsloppin' through the mud and singin' to a cow ain't his Gcallin'
And it Gdrives him up a wall everytime he hears the little doggies a Abawlin'
Oh but he Dlistens he's a Gcowboy
[Bridge]
He goes Cyodeliddlelaydee rough and tough and ready eatin' Gcowboy stew
It's Astringy it's tough but he gobbles it up like his Dmovie star heroes do
[Verse 2]
There Gain't any outlaws left for the good guys Ato battle
And it Dsure gets old just sittin' there tall in the Gsaddle
His Ghome on the range ain't nothin' but a house full of Acattle
Oh but he Dpunches 'em he’s a Gcowboy
[Bridge]
CYodeliddlelaydee he's rough and tough and ready eatin' Gcowboy stew
It's Astringy and it's tough but he gobbles it up like his Dmovie star heroes do
[Chorus]
GRidin' on the range in the cold makes him wish he was a Aplumber
And DSleepin' on the ground by the fire with his horse is a Gbummer
But Gdrivin' into town once a month to find a woman's even Adumber
But he Ddoes it cause he's a Gcowboy

Whoa boy
