Doug Bruce - Thank God I'm A Cowboy lyrics

rate me

Sometimes I think temptation

Has my number on speed dial.

If she calls me late at night,

I'll pour a whiskey and I'll light

A cigarette and we'll talk a while.

She says, son I know the road you're on

Can leave your heart so cold,

So come ride along with me and take a chance.

Give me your soul,

I'll give you the whole world in your hands.

[Chorus]

Thank God I'm a cowboy

Thank God I'm a cowboy

In that Texas sun I've had my taste of hell

I've done things I'm not proud of

When I can't weave in and out of

The troubles laid down that dusty trail

I just hit my knees and I pray

Thank God I'm a cowboy

I can ride away

I've found when you're ridin highest

You got a lot farther to fall.

And I remember how high I was that night I woke up

Face down in some old jailhouse with a stone wall.

I heard my father say,

Son out there on that lost highway,

It's hard to find your way back home.

When you get knocked down, you're on the ground

A cowboy saddles up and gets back on.

[Chorus]

Thank God I'm a cowboy

Thank God I'm a cowboy

In that Texas sun I've had my taste of hell

I've done things I'm not proud of

When I can't weave in and out of

The troubles laid down that dusty trail

I just hit my knees and I pray

Thank God I'm a cowboy

I can ride away

Thank God I'm a cowboy

I can ride away
