๐ Lyrics
I was born and raised in the Red Clay Hills of Texas
In the land where the grass gets only beer can tall
That's where I learned to cuss, and fight, and chew Brown Mule Tobacco
Fix windmills 'fore I was five years old
I rode every head of stock from the Gulf to Kansas city
And running wild is all I've ever known
But this cowboy's got a weakness, tight levis and yellow ribbons
And there's something 'bout 'em I can't leave alone
Tight levis and yellow ribbons will make a cowboy swim a river
That before he jumps, he knows it's way too wide (way too wide)
And they'll make him throw a saddle on a bronc he's never seen
And one he knows he'll never break to ride
I met her at a rodeo in Douglas, Arizona
I'd drawn the rankest horse a man could draw
Well, I rode him tall and spurred him high, and when I made the whistle
The crowd went wild, but she was all I saw
That night, we had a beer or two with friends of mine from Dallas
She smiled and said, "She loved the Texas drawl"
And I felt like Roy Rogers did in all those cowboy movies
'Cause I became a hero, got the money, girl, and all
Tight levis and yellow ribbons make a cowboy swim a river
That before he jumps, he knows it's way too wide (way too wide)
And they'll make him throw a saddle on a bronc he's never seen
And one he knows he'll never break to ride
Yeah, they'll make him throw a saddle on a bronc he's never seen
And one he knows he'll never break to ride
In the land where the grass gets only beer can tall
That's where I learned to cuss, and fight, and chew Brown Mule Tobacco
Fix windmills 'fore I was five years old
I rode every head of stock from the Gulf to Kansas city
And running wild is all I've ever known
But this cowboy's got a weakness, tight levis and yellow ribbons
And there's something 'bout 'em I can't leave alone
Tight levis and yellow ribbons will make a cowboy swim a river
That before he jumps, he knows it's way too wide (way too wide)
And they'll make him throw a saddle on a bronc he's never seen
And one he knows he'll never break to ride
I met her at a rodeo in Douglas, Arizona
I'd drawn the rankest horse a man could draw
Well, I rode him tall and spurred him high, and when I made the whistle
The crowd went wild, but she was all I saw
That night, we had a beer or two with friends of mine from Dallas
She smiled and said, "She loved the Texas drawl"
And I felt like Roy Rogers did in all those cowboy movies
'Cause I became a hero, got the money, girl, and all
Tight levis and yellow ribbons make a cowboy swim a river
That before he jumps, he knows it's way too wide (way too wide)
And they'll make him throw a saddle on a bronc he's never seen
And one he knows he'll never break to ride
Yeah, they'll make him throw a saddle on a bronc he's never seen
And one he knows he'll never break to ride
