Dreaming Cowboy

Mmm-hmm I'm a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm I'm a dreaming cowboy
I'm gonna sing you a song about an old cowboy who never let go
He rode from town to town year after year, he rode the rodeo
But now he's busted and beat, but he won't take defeat
'cause he's a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy

It's a long way back to his old homestead by the Rio Grande
It's a long way back to his shack by the rippling sands
But now a barstool is all that he can ride so he's a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy

He sits in the saddle of his make believe horse dreaming harmless lies
'Rides his range 'til they turn up the bar lights like the sun in his eyes
He thinks Texas could be right over there, but he's a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy

It's been twenty years since he walked out his door down in San Antoine
A lock of her hair that he lost somewhere, how the years have gone
He thinks she could be right over there, but he's a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, I'm a dreaming cowboy

Mmm-hmm, she's a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, she's a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, she's a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, she's a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, she's a dreaming cowboy. Mmm-hmm, she's a dreaming cowboy
Mmm-hmm, she's a dreaming cowboy…
