[Verse] Old Willy and Waylon, they had it all wrong. Said a cowboy is a hard life, in their sad cowboy song. Said doctors and lawyers, will have it so good. But a cowboy’s life, it’s just misunderstood. [Verse] They said the West was gone, but it’s still alive. In the fight to keep going, in the fight to survive. It’s not just the boots, or the dust on your skin, It’s the call of the plains, and the wild that’s within. [Chorus] Every man is a cowboy inside, A quiet strength, like the morning tide. A heart made for freedom, a love that stays true, A soul that can weather what life puts you through. I might wear a suit, but under it all, This cowboy heart still answers the call. [Verse] I learned to shake hands instead of throw fists, But don’t think I’ve forgotten the fight in my grip. I’ve walked city streets, but they never feel right, This cowboy heart needs the stars every night. There’s a part of me still that’s rough ’round the edge, That longs for the river and the wild canyon’s ledge. [Acoustic Bridge] It’s the sound of a guitar when the day’s been too long, The hum of the tires and an old country song. A beer and a friend when I’m down on my luck, The open road calling from the cab of my truck. [Chorus] Every man is a cowboy inside, A quiet strength, like the morning tide. A heart made for freedom, a love that stays true, A soul that can weather what life puts you through. I might wear a suit, but under it all, This cowboy heart still answers the call. [Acoustic Outro] This cowboy heart still answers the call.
