Intro: (2x) Verse 1: Up in the mornin' It's off to work I go And drivin' along I got a feelin' for the country Deep in my soul I wasn't made for the big town I need boots spurs and jeans Outside these city limits Where the air's cool and clean And I'm a city cowboy Longin for the saddle and the pull of the rains A city cowboy Tryin' to shake these city chains And all my life I've been dancin to the rhythem of a different song Tryin to get a long way out of town I'm a city cowboy V2: And high rise buildings Workin' all day long I got a feelin I've been Doin everything all wrong I need a southern sweetheart And a place to call my own Workin' the range from 5 to 9 And my fingers to the bone And I'm a city cowboy Ridin' along across the plains A city cowboy Tryin' to break these city chains Ridin' hard I'm lookin' for that song that's in my soul C D And it sure ain't Rock N' Roll I'm a city cowboy Bridge: I won't let this feeling die forever yearning for that open sky And I'm a city cowboy Longin for the saddle and the pull of the rains A city cowboy Tryin' to shake these city chains And all my life I've been dancin to the rhythem of a different song Tryin to get a long way out of town I'm a city cowboy Up in the mornin' It's off to work I go
