City light are shining like diamonds Coming from the southwestern lows Big jet engines screaming like ten thousand horses Another town, another show. I don't talk about the women that I've known from time to time You know that I just can't be alone You know there's no one waiting for me anywhere But I love, like I love the one at home, love the one at home. So you want to be a cowboy singer It can make you rich or make you poor Just turn it loose, let it out, and hook em' down the road There's always room for one more. Sometimes when I look into the mirror I can see that I've been crazy now and then The lines on my face won't tell you where I'm going But it sure can tell you where I've been. So you want to be a cowboy singer Pick them ol' guitars every night If you're ever down around Corpus Christi Texas Be sure to tell them all, I said, "Hi" Be sure to tell them all, I said, "Hi"
