[Verse 1] I got dust on my boots And a crease in my jeans Sunburn on my neck From the barbed-wire lines I sleep with the moon And I rise with the hens No fence can hold me I was made for the wind [Pre-Chorus] I don't need much Just a saddle and a beat One hard-look horse And a road under me When the night gets loud I just grin and go 'Cause the dirt knows my name And the whole world knows [Chorus] I'm a cowboy, cowboy Let me ride that line I'm a cowboy, cowboy Born to take my time Whoa-oh, whoa-oh Ain't no cage for me I'm a cowboy, cowboy That's the only thing I need (cowboy) [Verse 2] My hat's got scars From the rain and hail My hands tell stories In every nail I know every bend On the county road And I can tell by your eyes If you're set to go [Pre-Chorus] I don't need much Just a saddle and a beat One hard-look horse And a road under me When the night gets loud I just grin and go 'Cause the dirt knows my name And the whole world knows [Chorus] I'm a cowboy, cowboy Let me ride that line I'm a cowboy, cowboy Born to take my time Whoa-oh, whoa-oh Ain't no cage for me I'm a cowboy, cowboy That's the only thing I need (cowboy) [Bridge] If I fall, I get up Brush it off, ride on Got a stubborn heart And a singin' song Come a little closer If you wanna see How a lone rider lives When he's finally free [Final Chorus] I'm a cowboy, cowboy Let me ride that line I'm a cowboy, cowboy Born to take my time Whoa-oh, whoa-oh Ain't no cage for me I'm a cowboy, cowboy That's the only thing I need (cowboy)
