Cowboy Til The Day I Die
by Justin McBride
**Capo II**
Verse I
Well first off I m an Okie
So don t call me Tex
No I don t mind you askin bout this cast here on my leg
I had a little bad luck
with a bull in Santa Fe
He stomped me good but I ll ride tonight
Cause if I don t I don t get paid
No I never thought about a safer line of work
With a little more security that won t get me hurt
**CHORUS**
You can take away my pick up
Put me in a black sedan
Hung up my hat, spurs and boots
Ditch my Copenhagen can
Put me in a highrise office
make me wear a suit and tie
But I ll be a cowboy
Til the day I die
Verse II
Unless your one of us
You ll never understand
Cowboyin ain t just what I do
It s who I am
It s how I think, It s what I feel
It s the way of life I love
No it ain t like I had a choice
It s in my blood
