Mendin' a fence in Oklahoma
Rollin' like a tumbleweed in Tulsa
Holdin' onto to the dough in the rodeo
Somewhere in San Antone
All the way up in Nebraska, sittin' in a tractor
Out in Colorado, roundin' up cattle
Lightin' that Lucky Strike
And burnin' it red while the sun goes down
Long live the cowboy, rockin' them trucks
Never gettin' stuck in the mud
I'm talkin' about American-made, nothin' but USA
Dirt runnin' through his veins
Know him as the man in black, bustin' his ass
In the boots and the buckle and the hat
Come on make some noise
For the one and only real McCoys
Long live the cowboys
Pullin' the midnight haul through Arkansas
Ropin' the wind in Wichita
Tossin' that pigskin, tryin' to get a win
Down in the big D
All the way out in the Gulf of Mexico
Drillin' that hole, pumpin' black gold
Calloused them hands, spittin' in the can
Probably a God-fearin' man
Long live the cowboy, rockin' them trucks
Never gettin' stuck in the mud
I'm talkin' about American-made, nothin' but USA
Dirt runnin' through his veins
Know him as the man in black, bustin' his ass
In the boots and the buckle and the hat
Come on make some noise
For the one and only real McCoys
Long live the cowboys
John Wayne, Jesse James
Amarillo by Morning, George Strait
Wild Bill, Roy Roger too,
Marlboro Man, Chris LeDoux
And anybody wearin' them boots
Long live the cowboy...
Long live the cowboy, rockin' them trucks
Never gettin' stuck in the mud
I'm talkin' about American-made, nothin' but USA
Dirt runnin' through his veins
Know him as the man in black, bustin' his ass
In the boots and the buckle and the hat
Come on make some noise
For the one and only real McCoys
Long live the cowboys
Long live the cowboys
