I don't wear no Stetson
But I'm willin to bet son
That I'm a big a Texan as you are
'Cause
There's a girl in her barefeet
'Sleep on the back seat
An that trunk is full of Pearl…and Lone Star

I'm panhandlin
Man handlin
Post holin
High rollin
Dust Bowlin…Daddy
An I ain't got no blood veins
I just got them four lanes
Of hard…

I may still thank God that I am indeed a country boy and I really don't have anything personal against John Denver but I'll likely be cussing at you under my breath for at least the rest of tonight for getting it stuck in my head. That's what I get for viewing this thread. :bang:

[GMN]

Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown, everybodys watching to see the fallout, even when you're sleeping-sleeeping......
Tricky thing yesterday we were just children, here you are 2 steps ahead staying on guard


Name the tune:

to much nature boy ...

 

[429421blkangus]

...I'd kinda like to take his place
Issuing a long-reined equine grace
Saddle tramping the world on the wind like a stranger

He's he'd a few good tears
Between criollo ears
And all he knows is the trail goes on and on

And he's the only long rider I know
And he's the only long rider I know...

Extra points for who guesses this one!

 

[M5farm]

I know but I searched for it. never heard of the artist but will give it a listen.

 

[BILL CLAYLAND]

I am just a cowboy
lonesome on the trail
the stary night, the camp fire night

The coyote call,
and howlin winds wail
so i'll ride out,
to the old sundown

:cboy:

i'll just take one point cause i cheated,,,, not to many folks on here have heard of Corb Lund.. following Ian Tysons on youtube is the first i heard of him

 

[429421blkangus]

Corb Lund is one of the great storytellers of the music world and doesn't get the credit he deserves. His band and songs are a refreshing change from the Nashville style of "country" these days which seems to mean being a cowboy means being a redneck hillbilly from down south that has never seen a cow but wears a cowboy hat and drives a truck (not that there is anything wrong with the south or that there aren't real cowboys down there, don't think that's my point). For a northern cowboy there isn't much to relate to there. Canadian singer/songwriters Corb Lund, Tim Hus and Ian Tyson give a western style of country that relates as much to the northern states as much as it does to southern Canada. Corb grew up on a ranch and really understands the life of a working ranch cowboy and the rodeo life as well, kind of a modern Ledoux with songs like "Chinook Wind", "Hurtin' Albertan", "The Horse i Rode in on" andd many others. I can honestly say there isn't a single one of his songs i've found i don't like. If you're looking for real cowboy music again, check him out on youtube or itunes!

It's so wrong to take what isn't mine
And head out for the border
But I can't look at you and have
Respect for law and order
So hold on I'm gonna' shoot for the heart

I've got a freaky ol lady named Cocaine Katy

I got my poor ol grey haired daddy
driving my limousine

Gonna get my picture on the cover
Gonna buy 5 copies for my mother.

Dr. Hook and the medicine show. Cover of the rolling stone.

I got my picture on the cover of a publication two years ago. Kind of got me excited and made me think of that Dr Hook song.

Here's one for ya'll. I like the "just married" verse better but thought I'd use one a bit more clean.

Dear Abby, Dear Abby...
My fountain pen leaks
My wife hollers at me and my kids are all freaks
Every side I get up on is the wrong side of bed
If it weren't so expensive I'd wish I were dead
