He's a modern day cowboy Drinking beer in a bar with rap He rode up in a sixty-seven mustang Wearing jeans made by the Gap Never says a word to no one If he does it's only to mumble He drinks his beer by the hours The barkeep can only grumble From time to time on occasion A female patron has been known to try To get him to open up But they get nothing whenever they pry The tags on his car read 1998 from Texas It's full of everything he owns His head is full of tumbleweeds On the road is where he calls home There are no rings round any of his fingers No necklace around his tight tanned throat He orders another Lone Star beer He's actually from Terre Haute

Modern Day Cowboy
He's a modern day cowboy Drinking beer in a bar with rap He rode up in a sixty-seven mustang Wearing jeans made by the Gap Never says a word to no one If he does it's only to mumble He drinks his beer by the hours The barkeep can only grumble From time to time on occasion A female patron has been known to try To get him to open up But they get nothing whenever they pry The tags on his car read 1998 from Texas It's full of everything he owns His head is full of tumbleweeds On the road is where he calls home There are no rings round any of his fingers No necklace around his tight tanned throat He orders another Lone Star beer He's actually from Terre Haute
