God saved some lucky men to be cowboys

'Cause no ordinary man can wear the name

Hearts of gold and hands of leather

And that restless spirit no one will ever tame


CHORUS:

Branded by the land

Befriended by the wind

You may never pass this way again

But somethin' in the wind is sayin' that your time is now, boy

Your daddy calls you a drifter

I call you cowboy


That voice of freedom is callin' you down the line

And you don't know where you're goin' but you know what you leave behind

So you're saddlin' up now to chase your dreams

To show yourself and the world what freedom really means


CHORUS


She's got eyes as blue as the sky

Whoever said that cowboys don't cry

Its just somethin' deep inside sayin' your time is now, boy

Your daddy calls you a drifter

I call you cowboy

Yeah, your daddy calls you a drifter

I call you friend

I call you cowboy

I call you cowboy

I call you cowboy
