Where Cowboys Are King

verse 1 There's a dusty hat up on the dash of every truck you meet Country roads and fenceposts as far as you can see Billboard sign says, "Rodeo, June eleven through thirteen" When you get to town just look around for the Rusty Nail Cafe Where the old hands sip their coffee and relive their glory days A modern day Charlie Russell scene Where cowboys are king I get back there every now and then Turn a few steers in the roping pen Just a couple of days and I'm gone again Chasin' this old six string Oh, but I sure love to be Where cowboys are king verse 2 Runs the horses down, turn 'em out, head over to the bar There'll be George Strait on the jukebox, and I'll bet the chances are There'll be some cowgirls in well-worn jeans Where cowboys are king I get back there every now and then Turn a few steers in the roping pen Just a couple of days and I'm gone again Chasin' this old six string Oh, but I sure love to be Where cowboys are king Refrain Boys, as bad as I wish I could stay I just hope this never goes away Outro So I can get back here every now and then Turn a few steers in the roping pen Spend a little time with some good old friends Y'all make it so hard to leave Oh, but I sure love to be Where cowboys are king Oh, and I sure love to be Where cowboys are king
