[Intro] "Well, it’s another long ride through this dusty ol' land…" [Verse 1] The sun is settin', paintin' the sky, I’m just a cowboy lettin' the days roll by. Boots worn down, hat tilted low, Ridin' the trails where the wild winds blow. [Pre-Chorus] The coyotes howl, they know my name, The desert dust and I, we're one and the same. [Chorus] Ridin' through the dust, ain’t no one to trust, A lone star shinin' bright, my guide tonight. Through the canyon's edge, with a heart that won't budge, Ridin' through the dust, just me and my luck. [Verse 2] Moon's risin' high, casting shadows long, I whistle a tune, an old cowboy song. Campfire's burnin', stars up above, It’s a lonely road but it’s the life I love. [Pre-Chorus] The horses' hooves are my lullaby, A restless spirit that’ll never die. [Chorus] Ridin' through the dust, ain’t no one to trust, A lone star shinin' bright, my guide tonight. Through the canyon's edge, with a heart that won't budge, Ridin' through the dust, just me and my luck. [Bridge] There’s gold in these hills, but it ain't what I seek, Just the open plains and the quiet creek. No riches or fame will tie me down, I’m a drifter by heart, never in one town. [Hook] "Whoa-oh-oh, ridin' free, no chains can hold what I gotta be." [Build-Up] "Feel the thunder, feel the rain, breakin' free from every chain!" [Verse 3] Now the dawn is breakin', the night fades away, Another town, another dusty day. But I won’t stop ‘til the sun goes down, 'Cause I’m a cowboy, ridin' town to town. [Breakdown] "There’s a storm brewin' in my soul, like the dust that never settles..." "The road is long and the night’s so cold, but this fire inside won't let go." "I’ve seen the shadows, I’ve faced the dark," "But there ain’t no fear in a cowboy’s heart!" [Final Chorus] Ridin' through the dust, ain’t no one to trust, A lone star shinin' bright, my guide tonight. Through the canyon's edge, with a heart that won't budge, Ridin' through the dust, just me and my luck. [Outro] "Yeah, just ridin', ridin' through the dust…" "Yeah, just ridin', ridin' through the dust…" "Yeah, just ridin', ridin' through the dust…"
