"The Cowboy (Small Texas Town)" lyrics - WAYLON JENNINGS

I'm a cowboy that came here from Texas
Just to play you my music, that's all
My long shaggy hair and the clothes that I wear
Ain't fit for no big fancy ball

[Chorus:]
But the cowboys, they still come to see me
And the hippies all gather around
When I sing of my life in the city, no
With roots in a small Texas town

That white-collar crowd may be stealing
Anything that the law will allow
A pen for a gun, but they don't have no fun
'Cause they don't fit in our crazy crowd

[Chorus:]
But the cowboys, they still come to see me
And the hippies all gather around
When I sing of my life in the city
With roots in a small Texas town
Yeah, the cowboys, they still come to see me
And the hippies all gather around
When I sing of my life in the city, no
With roots in a small Texas town
