I leave these city lights
Evry Friday and Saturday night
Back to this hole-in-the-wall
I still get that back home call
I left my ranch and now its gone
I dont fit in but still Im holdin on
When I sit at the bar it suites me
Wheres the cowboy I used to be
{Chorus}
I aint an Urban cowboy that dont understand
What its like to live and work the land
So I sit here drinkin and feelin coy
Hey Hey look at me Im a Bourbon C owboy
{Bridge}
When you dont rope and you dont rustle and dont work the land
When youre all tied up in suites cause youre a business man
Drinkin on the weekend at some honky-tonk that brings you joy
Fetch another round lay that bottle down on the counter boy
Im a whiskey drinkin self defeatin boot wearin corporate toy
Hey, Hey look at me Im a Bourbon Cowboy
I leave the honky-tonk after the fights
On my way back home I just sigh
I look in the mirror to see
The cowboy I used to be
Contrary to that poem
Sometimes you just cant go home
At least not to a place
That progress has stripped away
{Chorus}
{Chorus}
Hey, Hey look at me Im a Bourbon Cowboy
Have a drink with Me Im a Bourbon Cowboy
