|
Had a horse when I was young |
|
And I was tryin' to put his saddle on |
|
When I felt a warm summer breeze from the river bed |
|
So I went fishing for some rainbow trout |
|
When in the distance I heard mama shout |
|
"Hurry up son, dinner's going cold" |
|
Working in the city |
|
The Country's still my home |
|
Life just ain't the same, without |
|
Cowboys and Cadillacs |
|
Blue jeans and black hats |
|
It don't matter how high the buildings rise |
|
The city always lacks |
|
Old campfire melodies |
|
My daddy used to sing to me |
|
Though it's got fancy bars with models and stars |
|
But the memories take me back |
|
Cowboys and Cadillacs |
|
Now I'm up at 6 am |
|
Cause there's bills to pay and times no friend |
|
So I grab a cup of coffee on my way out the door |
|
Fighting traffic every inch of the way |
|
I crank the radio and try to escape |
|
And they play and old song that brings a little smile |
|
Working in the city |
|
The Country's still my home |
|
Life just ain't the same, without |
|
Cowboys and Cadillacs |
|
Blue jeans and black hats |
|
It don't matter how high the buildings rise |
|
The city always lacks |
|
Old campfire melodies |
|
My daddy used to sing to me |
|
Though it's got fancy bars with models and stars |
|
But the memories take me back |
|
Cowboys and Cadillacs |
|
These old worn boots are still a part of me |
|
You can take me out around the world |
|
But the country's where my heart will be |
|
Cowboys and Cadillacs |
|
Blue jeans and black hats |
|
It don't matter how high the buildings rise |
|
The city always lacks |
|
Old campfire melodies |
|
My daddy used to sing to me |
|
And though it's got fancy bars with models and stars |
|
The memories take me back to |
|
Cowboys and Cadillacs |
|
Oh yeah |
|
Cowboys and Cadillacs |
