I mighta have had a sidekick with a funny name,
Riding around the hills, chasing jessie james
getting up on the brink of danger,
riding shotgun for the Texas rangers,
(redacted cuz this line is kinda sensitive)
Sleeping out all night 'neath the desert stars
Dreaming away on a prayer
I shouldve been a cowboy!
I shouldve learned to rope and ride~
I wouldve been wearing my six shooter, ridin' my pony on a cattle driiiiive~
stealin' those young' girls' hearts,
Just like gene and roy
Singing those campfire songs,
Oh, I shoulda been a cowboy.
