It takes a real man to be a cowboy
It takes a ‘Real Man’ to be a ‘Cowboy’
It takes a real man to be a Cowboy
Yeap! That’s right, not just any one can be, a real cowboy
To be a cowboy, you got to have real special qualities
You got to stand tall and sit up right, Oh and by the way, standing tall
Is not measured in a man’s height, it is measured in a man’s Pride.
It takes a real man to be a Cowboy
You have to have short hair and a properly trimmed mustache
Heck it’s in the Cowboy’s code
You have to be ready for action at the tipping of the hat, when a pretty gal walks by
As you say, “Howdy Ma’am.” Yeap, you got to have those Manners
To be a real Cowboy
To be a real Cowboy
You have to maintain a life of Integrity,
Now it an’it that easy but it can be done
You may not always make that 8 second ride
And blaming the bull is not the Cowboy way
So you just dust yourself off, reset the clock, and get right back on
That sun-of-a-gun
That’s the signature of a real Cowboy.
You will know a real Cowboy when you see him
A Cowboy walks tall and upright in a Humbling way
You won’t hear him bragging about himself
But you can be sure of one thing
He’ll have a Cowboy smile that extends from ear to ear
And that’s just the mark of Confidence with a job well done
It takes a real man to be a Cowboy
