Should've Been A Cowboy

I bet you've never heard ol' Marshal Dillon say Miss Kitty, have you ever thought of runnin' away? Settlin' down, would you marry me If I asked you twice and begged you, pretty please? She'd have said, "Yes", in a New York minute They never tied the knot, his heart wasn't in it He just stole a kiss as he rode away He never hung his hat up at Kitty's place I should've been a cowboy I should've learned to rope and ride Wearin' my six-shooter, ridin' my pony on a cattle drive Stealin' the young girls' hearts Just like Gene and Roy Singin' those campfire songs Woah, I should've been a cowboy I might of had a sidekick with a funny name Runnin' wild through the hills chasin' Jesse James Ending up on the brink of danger Ridin' shotgun for the Texas Rangers Go west young man, haven't you been told? California's full of whiskey, women and gold Sleepin' out all night beneath the desert stars With a dream in my eye and a prayer in my heart I should've been a cowboy I should've learned to rope and ride Wearin' my six-shooter, ridin' my pony on a cattle drive Stealin' the young girls' hearts Just like Gene and Roy Singin' those campfire songs Woah, I should've been a cowboy I should've been a cowboy I should've learned to rope and ride I'd be wearin' my six-shooter, ridin' my pony on a cattle drive Stealin' the young girls' hearts Just like Gene and Roy Singin' those campfire songs Woah, I should've been a cowboy Yeah, I should've been a cowboy I should've been a cowboy --- Should've Been a Cowboy - Toby Keith
