Song Description
This older guy gets ready each evening. He dresses like a Cowboy. He's wearing new riding boots and a Stetson Hat. He's driving around Beverley Hills, California in his Cadillac. The only horse power he has ever known, is under the hood of his car.
He's trying to recapture his youth. Each night he goes searching for the perfect Babe.

Lyrics
Song - California Cowboy
Verse #1
Wearin' new Ridin' Boots and Stetson Hat,
Cruisin' 'round Beverley Hills in his Cadillac.
Smellin' of newly applied sweet after shave,
Searchin' each and ev'ry night for the perfect Babe.
Chorus
His heroes are the old Movie Stars,
That rode on the silver screen.
John Wayne is his idol,
The only horse power that he's known is,
Under the hood of his car.
He's a California Cowboy,
Lookin' for his co-star.
Verse #2
Dreamin' that he's free out on the open range,
Wishin' that life would bring around a welcomed change.
Hopin' it comes for real and very soon,
Prayin' that it happens before his own high noon.
Chorus
His heroes are the old Movie Stars,
That rode on the silver screen.
John Wayne is his idol,
The only horse power that he's known is,
Under the hood of his car.
He's a California Cowboy,
Lookin' for his co-star.
Bridge
Sometimes city life has burst it's seams,
But this world was made for living out your dreams.
No, he's not the real McCoy,
Just a California Cowboy.
(Instrumental)
