I wasn't born in the heart of Texas Roaming wild and free I wasn't raised in the ways of Jesus Oh but now I see I can't help but wonder What my life would be (What my life would be) If I ever was a cowboy Far from the city I'd be ridin' on a horse and a Chevy I'd be workin' for a good life Be married to a good wife And my kids would grow lookin' up to me And I'd be stronger 10 feet taller Knowing God was lookin' down on me If I ever was a cowboy Man, I'd be livin' my dream I got as far as music city Chasing that neon dream But picking guitars and lonely women Ain't all what it seems I can't help but wonder What my life would be If I ever was a cowboy Far from the city I'd be ridin' on a horse and a Chevy I'd be workin' for a good life Be married to a good wife And my kids would grow lookin' up to me And I'd be stronger 10 feet taller Knowing God was lookin' down on me If I ever was a cowboy Man, I'd be livin' my dream If I get big one day and headline the rodeo in Houston I'll raise my hat up high take a bow and start singing If I ever was a cowboy Far from the city I'd be ridin' on a horse and a Chevy I'd be workin' for a good life Be married to a good wife And my kids would grow lookin' up to me And I'd be stronger 10 feet taller Knowing God was lookin' down on me If I ever was a cowboy Man, I'd be livin' my dream If I ever was a cowboy Man, I'd be livin' my dream If I ever was a cowboy
