Cowboy Up

Verse 1

he grabbed his lucky rope and his llama boots

Stole $40 from his daddy’s shoe for his entry fee in Mesquite

Blowing through the screen door gave his mom a heart attack

As a Duke Boyd over that ol Pontiac

He knew he was headed down and never-ending one-way street

⸻

Chorus

That’s where all his dreams came true

Rolling around with the bulls and the blood and the booze

When it all felt like too much

He just held his head high and he said cowboy up

⸻

Verse 2

he drew a bull, they called locomotive breath

And he came out kicking to the right to the left

He felt the rush from his head down to his feet

There’s a million things going through his mind

As he held onto that eight second ride

Now everybody knows that he’s the one to beat

⸻

Chorus

That’s where all his dreams came true

Rolling around with the bulls and the blood and the booze

When it all felt like too much

He just held his head high and he said cowboy up

⸻

Final Chorus (Repeat / Big)

That’s where all his dreams came true

Rolling around with the bulls and the blood and the booze

When it all felt like too much

He just held his head high and he said cowboy up
