Lyrics
COWBOY DOING COUNTRY
Artist: Guy Leroux
DOING COUNTRY MY WAY / LEAVING VANCOUVER
PLAYING IN TACOMMA........... FOR ONE NIGHT
GUITAR AROUND MY WAIST
MY COWGIRL WITH A PRETTY FACE
WE'RE HITCHIN' A RIDE TO CALGARY
EXCITMENT AND THE SMELLS
AND COUNTRY SOUNDS IN THE AIR
AND HORSES AT THE STAMPEDE PUT ON A SHOW
FROM CALIFORNIA TO ALABAM THE LONE STAR TO DIXIELAND
THEY'RE ALL HERE AT THE CALGARY STAMPEDE
Chorus
YOU CAN'T BEAT THE FUN OF A COWBOY DOING COUNTRY
AND THE HAPPINESS ON EVERYBODYS FACE
YOU CAN'T BEAT THE LIFE OF A COWBOY DOING COUNTRY / OH YEA
AND THE FOLKS YOU MEET AT EVERY COUNTRY SHOWPLACE
Coda:
TAKE ER BOYS ... ahh ha ... YE ho .... SOUNDING GOOD
DOING COUNTRY MY WAY
HEADING FOR THE MARITIMES
LISTENING TO SONGS FROM TENNESSEE
WHEN WE GET TO HALIFAX
WE PLAY SONGS AND MUSIC TRACKS
FROM VIRGINIA TO THE MISSISSIPPI
THAT'S A PART OF THE MAGIC DOING COUNTRY
PICKIN' AND PLAYIN' BENEATH THE TWINKLIN' STARS
FROM SUNNY FLORIDA TO OREGON / THE DAKOTAS TO THE GREAT YUKON
PLAYIN' WHERE THE GREAT COUNTRY PEOPLE ARE
Chorus
YOU CAN'T BEAT THE FUN OF A COWBOY DOING COUNTRY
AND THE HAPPINESS ON EVERYBODYS FACE
YOU CAN'T BEAT THE LIFE OF A COWBOY DOING COUNTRY / OH YEA
AND THE FOLKS YOU MEET AT EVERY COUNTRY SHOWPLACE
AND THE FOLKS YOU MEET AT EVERY COUNTRY SHOWPLACE
