Drivin' all night, too many miles to go
Pedal to the metal, listen to the radio
I got three days to get
from Cheyenne to San Antonio
That's the life of a cowboy
ridin' the rodeo
Well, my back's not soarin',
I'm movin' kinda slow
When I reach Okie City,
there's a barrel racer that I know
Just a little home cooking
and some other treats my bones
That's the life of a cowboy
ridin' the road he knows
Ride cowboy, ride, hold on for a night
Eight seconds is a long, time
when you're sittin' on dynamite
Well, you can't get lucky
but if you get home
That's the life of a cowboy
riding the road alone
Well, I might get lucky
down around San Antone
And find a little Texas girl
I can call my own
Yeah, that Lone Star Love
is the best I've ever known
That's the life of a cowboy
ridin' a rodeo
Ride, cowboy, ride, hold on for your life
8 seconds is a long, time
when you're sippin' on Vitamix
Well, you can get lucky,
but if you get thrown
That's the life of a cowboy
ridin' a rodeo
Just a little more cookin'
and some lovin' to ease my bones
That's the life of a cowboy
ridin' a rodeo
Yeah, that's the life of a
cowboy riding a rodeo
