There you go Kenny, these are the lyrics I've come up with, might need a bit of tweeking, do they work? Might post on songwriting for feed back?


Verse 1

Spent my life
In this small town
Down on my luck
Need to change
Gonna’ saddle up
The old steed
I’m off to
Ride the range

Chorus

I'm a Cowboy
Driftin' Cowboy
Like a Tumbleweed
I roll from Town to Town
Roaming High Plains
Strolling Lowlands
Looking for a place
To settle down

Verse 2

Well I headed
For a City
Not as Pretty
As I thought
Towering monsters
Filled the skyline
And the people
Didn’t care

Verse 3

Rode down
To the Westcoast
Where the
Film stars
Hang around
Sound and vision
Were a’plenty
But a soul
Could not be found

Chorus

I'm a Cowboy
Driftin' Cowboy
Like a Tumbleweed
I roll from Town to Town
Roaming High Plains
Strolling Lowlands
Looking for a place
To settle down

Verse 4

Now I’ve toured
All directions
Over mountains
Under trees
Swum cross rivers
Rode cross prairies
But nowhere
Can match my dreams

Chorus

I'm a Cowboy
Driftin' Cowboy
Like a Tumbleweed
I roll from Town to Town
Roaming High Plains
Strolling Lowlands
Looking for a place
To settle down

Verse 5

There is
Just one conclusion
To be drawn
From my
Grand Tour
Go back home
To those
Who love me
Where the Air
Is always pure

Verse 6

Where my horse
He can get water
Where my Daughter
Plays all day
Where all the people
Need me
And they
Don’t care
What I say

End Chorus

I was a Cowboy
Driftin’ Cowboy
Like a Tumbleweed
I rolled
From Town to Town
But the place
That I
Was lookin’ for
Was here
In my hometown
