Verse 1
I remember my first pair of boots
Barely fit but oh so cute
Around the house I’d scoot
Draggin’ those cowboy boots
Learned to crawl, learned to stand
Now two-steppin’, I’m the man
Grandma bought that cowboy hat
Ain’t no lookin back
Pre-Chorus
Dust on my boots
Country in my soul
Never was a question
Which way this cowboy would go
Chorus
Cowboy from the day I was born
From those rockin’ horses to the bulls with horns
Rodeo runnin’ through my blood
Raised on grit and a little bit of mud
Buckles to win, strapped in tight
Prayin’ hard underneath those Friday night lights
Gate opens again
One second, two second — just hold on, gotta win
Verse 2
Daddy said, “Boy, keep your chin up”
Even when the ride gets rough
Life’ll throw you hard and fast
But tough cowboys like you always last
County fairs and summer nights
Arena dust and neon lights
Crowd gets loud when they call my name
Every ride’s another chance to win again
Bridge
Scars on my hands
Smile in my eyes
Eight seconds here I come
Openin that chute, makes me feel alive
Final Chorus
Cowboy from the day I was born
Still chasin’ sunsets and the sound of that horn
Rodeo’s more than what I do
It’s who I am straight through and through
Buckles to win, strapped in tight
Heart beatin’ hard underneath those lights
Gate opens again
One second, two second — hold on till the end
Yeah hold on till the end…
That cowboy life’s where I’ve always been
