(Intro – Acoustic Guitar + Light Kick Drum)
(Male Vocal – Anthony Royce)
(Verse 1)
Boots in the dirt, heart on the line
Living every day like it’s my last ride
Show respect, give a hand where I can
That’s the measure of a true cowboy man
(Chorus)
I’m a cowboy, loyal and true
Treatin’ folks right, that’s what we do
But don’t mistake kindness, don’t play that game
Cross me once, you’ll remember my name
(Verse 2)
I’ll tip my hat, lend a word of peace
Do my best just to let storms cease
But if you push too hard, it’s a heavy toll
By the time you see fire, it’s too late to console
(Chorus)
I’m a cowboy, loyal and true
Treatin’ folks right, that’s what we do
But don’t mistake kindness, don’t play that game
Cross me once, you’ll remember my name
(Bridge)
Patience runs deep, but my line runs thin
I forgive easy, but I don’t forget sin
We stand tall, strong as the plains
Respect is earned, not a card you can claim
(Final Chorus – Extended, Male Lead w/ Female Harmony)
(Male) I’m a cowboy, loyal and true
(Female harmony) Standing tall, I’ll see it through
(Male) Treatin’ folks right, that’s what we do
(Female harmony) Kindness strong, but the fire burns too
(Male + Female together)
But don’t mistake kindness, don’t play that game
Cross me once, you’ll remember my name
Yeah I’m a cowboy… loyal and true
(Outro – Steel Guitar Fade, Soft Drum)
