Kameron Marlowe - We Were Cowboys lyrics

Daddy watched John Wayne on a corduroy couch
I didn't know Texas from a hole in the ground
But it roped me in, that's where it all began
A stick was a rifle, a bullet was a rock
The good guys won and the bad guys lost
We climbed them trees, we were wild and free
Me and my buddies ran that town

We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that
Couldn't be tamed we were cowboys
Didn't know nothin' but we knew everything
We never made it eight, nevеr won a buckle
But man, we werе somethin'

When I turned sixteen my saddle was the
Front seat of that 1993 Silverado
On a dirt road
I was Eastwood cool with a Marlboro Red
Aztec blanket in an eight food bed
Earnin' braggin' rights, every Saturday night
Them small town girls couldn't help
But fall for us

We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that
Couldn't be tamed we were cowboys
Didn't know nothin' but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were somethin', yeah
We were cowboys

We were cowboys
Jumpin' barbed wire fences and
Ropin' the wind we were cowboys
No, ain't a thing changed since we were kids

We were cowboys
Runnin' like wild horses that
Couldn't be tamed we were cowboys
Didn't know nothin' but we knew everything
We never made it eight, never won a buckle
But man, we were somethin'
Wouldn't change nothing
Couldn't tell us nothing 'cause man
We were something damn, we were something

Mm, we were cowboys we were cowboys
