Lyrics

Well, I heard him snicker when I walked in
He said ?where?d ya get that hat?
I said ?down at the corner drug store son,
Now, just how ironic is that??
I?d been around the block a time or two
Seen trouble now and then
Didn?t take to long for me to figure it out
I was looking right at it again

He said? you aint from the country
Bet you don?t know beans from squat?
I said ?it?s plain to me and any fool can see
You?re a whole lot drunker than smart
Now, I can buy you a beer and we can drink it here
Or we can take it to the parking lot
And you?ll find out Cowboy comes from the heart

Cowboy comes from the heart
It don?t matter who you are or where you got your start
If you aint got the backbone son, don?t try to play the part
Cause everybody knows, Cowboy comes from the heart

I saddle up my own broncs and I ridem? till they stand
Then I coolem? off and I rubem? down with a gentle hand
Cause it?s a cowboys code, it?s a golden rule,
you finish what you start
And everybody knows, Cowboy comes from the heart

I tip my hat to the ladies, say thank you and yes mam
I try hard not to cuss so much whenever their around
And I can dance all night and treatem? right
and when the lovin? starts
All the ladies know, Cowboy comes from the heart

Cowboy comes from the heart
It don?t matter who you are or where you got your start
Cause it?s a way of life with an attitude,
you keep your horse out in front of your cart
And everybody knows, Cowboy comes from the heart

Now, a cowboy?s heart is gentle, honest and it?s true
A cowboy?s pride, now there?s another thing,
got it?s own set of rules
He can take some ribbin; a good natured joke or two
Oh? but don?t you step across that line, he?ll be all over you

So, what?s it gona be son? I think I?ve made it clear
If you said that with a smile on your face, hell, I?ll buy you that beer
Now, think before you answer that, don?t take this thing too far
Cause there?s a good bet, your looking? at the man you think you are

Cowboy comes from the heart,
It don?t matter who you are or where you got your start
If you aint got the backbone son, don?t try to play the part
Cause everybody knows, Cowboy comes from the heart

Yeah, it?s a way of life with an attitude, you keep your horse out in front of your cart
Cowboy comes from the heart
