Charlie Daniels Band, The – D— Good Cowboy

He’s the loosest dude I’ve ever been exposed to

He loves the bottle and a dirty joke

He likes to hang out on the street

And he’d rather fight than eat

And his nose and the women keep him broke

He’s been in every jail from here to Juarez

And every funky old backstreeet saloon

He’s a victim of his fate

Born a hundred years too late

And sometimes I think

A hundred years too soon

He’s a outlaw, He’s a bum

He’s a rounder and then some

He’s as ornery as a redneck fool can be

He ain’t ever gonna be no different

He’s a da** good cowboy

And I hope to he** he stays in Tennessee

He didn’t finish school or go to college

When he turned 16 he just had to go

And while everyone who did

Was building homes and having kids

He was out West ridin’ in some rodeo

He got busted up in Cheyenne last September

And he had to get his hat and pack his trunk

And he came on back to town,

He just kinda hangs around

He’s the local hero and the local drunk

He’s a outlaw, He’s a bum

He’s a rounder and then some

He’s as ornery as a redneck fool can be

He ain’t ever gonna be no different

He’s a da** good cowboy

And I hope to he** he stays in Tennessee

You may think he’s a little crazy

And you may think that where he’s at’s nowhere

And in your righteous sight,

You just might be right

But he da## sure did have fun gettin there

He’s a outlaw, He’s a bum

He’s a rounder and then some

He’s as ornery as a redneck fool can be

And if you don’t like him you won’t like me either

He’s a da** good cowboy

And I hope to he** he stays in Tennessee
