i'll bet you've never heard ole marshall dillon say |
|
Miss kitty have you ever thought of running away |
|
Settling down, would you marry me |
|
If i asked you twice and begged you pretty please |
|
She'd have said 'yes' in a new york minute |
|
They never tied the knot |
|
His heart wasn't in it |
|
He just stole a kiss as he rode away |
|
He never hung his hat up at kitty's place |
|
I should've been a cowboy |
|
I should've learned to rope and ride |
|
Wearing my six-shooter, riding by pony on a cattle drive |
|
Stealing a young girl's heart |
|
Just like gene and roy |
|
Singing those campfire songs |
|
Oh i should've been a cowboy |
|
I might of had a side kick with a funny name |
|
Running wild through the hills chasing jesse james |
|
Ending up on the brink of danger |
|
Riding shotgun for the texas rangers |
|
Go west young man, haven't you been told |
|
California's full of whisky, women and gold |
|
Sleeping out all night beneath the desert stars |
|
A dream in my eye and a prayer in my heart |
|
I should've been a cowboy |
|
I should've learned to rope and ride |
|
Wearing my six-shooter riding by pony on a cattle drive |
|
Stealing a young girl's heart |
|
Just like gene and roy |
|
Singing those campfire songs |
|
Oh i should've been a cowboy |
