We Were Cowboys
Daddy watched John Wayne on a corduroy couch
I didn't know Texas from a hole in the ground
But it roped me in, that's where it all began
A stick was a rifle, a bullet was a rock
Good guys won and the bad guys lost
We climbed them trees, we were wild and free
Me and my buddies ran that town
We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that couldn't be tamed
We were cowboys
Didn't know nothing but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were something
When I turned 16 my saddle was the front seat of that 1993 Silverado
On a dirt road
I was Eastwood cool with a Marlboro Red
Aztec blanket in an eight food bed
Earnin' braggin' rights, every Saturday night
Them small town girls couldn't help but fall for us
We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that couldn't be tamed
We were cowboys
Didn't know nothing but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were something, yeah
Yeah, yeah
We were cowboys
We were cowboys
Jumpin' barbed wire fences and ropin' the wind
We were cowboys
No, ain't a thing changed since we were kids
We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that couldn't be tamed
We were cowboys
Didn't know nothing but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were something
Wouldn't change nothing
Couldn't tell us nothing, 'cause man, we were something
Damn, we were something
Mmm, we were cowboys
We were cowboys
I didn't know Texas from a hole in the ground
But it roped me in, that's where it all began
A stick was a rifle, a bullet was a rock
Good guys won and the bad guys lost
We climbed them trees, we were wild and free
Me and my buddies ran that town
We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that couldn't be tamed
We were cowboys
Didn't know nothing but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were something
When I turned 16 my saddle was the front seat of that 1993 Silverado
On a dirt road
I was Eastwood cool with a Marlboro Red
Aztec blanket in an eight food bed
Earnin' braggin' rights, every Saturday night
Them small town girls couldn't help but fall for us
We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that couldn't be tamed
We were cowboys
Didn't know nothing but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were something, yeah
Yeah, yeah
We were cowboys
We were cowboys
Jumpin' barbed wire fences and ropin' the wind
We were cowboys
No, ain't a thing changed since we were kids
We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that couldn't be tamed
We were cowboys
Didn't know nothing but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were something
Wouldn't change nothing
Couldn't tell us nothing, 'cause man, we were something
Damn, we were something
Mmm, we were cowboys
We were cowboys
