Well, a man can't spend his life in reflection
Just thinkin' about the way things used to be
So I'm gonna take myself a new direction
And make myself some brand new memories
Well, I spent lots of years out on that highway
Ridin' buckin' horses for my grub
But now I make my livin' with this ole guitar
And just like rodeo it's in my blood
And now I'm gonna sing my cowboy music
With a country feel and a little touch of soul
And I hope you people take a likin' to it, yes I do
'Cause I can't ride the bronco's anymore
Now I make you a wager, that I've been in your hometown
Ridin' broncs in your big rodeo
But now the only time you'll ever see this cowboy come around
Is if I'm singin' in a country music show
And now I'm gonna sing my cowboy music
With a country feelin' and a little touch of soul
And I hope you people take a likin' to it, yes I do
'Cause I can't ride the broncos anymore
My whole body's gettin' to dang tired and sore
And there's a lot of parts on me that don't work no more
