He received his father's name like his father before him
So I'lGl just go on Emwearing this Caround
And Gshow it off in Emevery single tCownD  
And I'll Gclimb this tree and let my Emlegs hang free until I Cfind
the Ebroot of my Dfamily line.
(Now walk up the bass line from G to D, then play Eb D)
Verse 2:
Well I may be a city rat but cowboy's in my blood 
Ridin round on horseback with a lasso just because
IKUA PURDY 
A living breathing legend in his time
And I'll wrap this sandwich up in cellophane until we ride
Into my family's horizon line

CHe went roaming in CmWyoming 
Ghorseback riding and cEmattle roping
Che roped that steer in Cmrecord time
Dthey saw him as an outcast till he D7showed them how to ride
Ending:
So I say,
