singing the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
where hustle's the name of the game
and nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
there's been a load of compromising
on the road to my horizon
but I'm gonna be where the lights are shining on me
like a rhinestone cowboy
riding out on a horse
in a star spangled rodeo
like a rhinestone cowboy
getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
and offers coming over the phone
well I really don't mind the rain
and a smile can hide all the pain
but you're down when you're riding the train
that's taking the long way
and I dream of the things I'll do
with a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
there'll be a load of compromising
on the road to my horizon
but I'm gonna be where the lights are shining on me
like a rhinestone cowboy
riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo
rhinestone cowboy
getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
and offers coming over the phone
like a rhinestone cowboy
riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo
like a rhinestone cowboy
getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
like a rhinestone cowboy
I've been walking these streets so long singing the same old song I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway where hustle's the name of the game and nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain there's been a load of compromising on the road to my horizon but I'm gonna be where the lights are shining on me like a rhinestone cowboy riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo like a rhinestone cowboy getting cards and letters from people I don't even know and offers coming over the phone well I really don't mind the rain and a smile can hide all the pain but you're down when you're riding the train that's taking the long way and I dream of the things I'll do with a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe there'll be a load of compromising on the road to my horizon but I'm gonna be where the lights are shining on me like a rhinestone cowboy riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo rhinestone cowboy getting cards and letters from people I don't even know and offers coming over the phone like a rhinestone cowboy riding out on a horse in a star spangled rodeo like a rhinestone cowboy getting cards and letters from people I don't even know like a rhinestone cowboy Explain Request ×
