I was Alton on the second row Of the Baptist Church choir I was keeper of the minutes for the Tri In charge of the homecoming
I was a straight 'A', straight And level-headed as they And parked at the Sonic, isn't ironic my whole world came undone
One slot over was a roper Giving me his George Strait And before I knew Good-Two-Shoes Was two steppin', wild
Back in my cowboy days, Lord a honky tonkin' haze He was fruit in them tight Wranglers and boots Oh, it was all fun, we were two outlaws on the run that rodeo dust, two unliklies in love I swore I'd never him up back in my cowboy days
Well said, "He's crazy", daddy says, "He's lazy" said, "Does he have a brother?" Well I've changed my dress and who woulda I'd be them jeans and ropers
It was passionate nights and light was watchin' the clock It was love in the and bacon at the seventy-six truck shop
Back in my cowboy days, Lord what a honky tonkin' He was forbidden fruit in them Wranglers and boots Oh, it was all fun, we were two outlaws on the run Tastin' that rodeo dust, two in love I swore I'd never give him up back in my cowboy
Sometimes I lay here 'bout him And laugh about my past Then I over and kiss the calf roper And who'da though ever last
Back in my days, Lord what a honky-tonkin' haze He was forbidden fruit in them Wranglers and boots Oh, it was all dangerous fun, we two outlaws on the run that rodeo dust, two unliklies in love Oh, I swore I'd never give him up back in my cowboy
