[Verse 1]

You know, I'd love to be a cowboy
Just me and my trusty horse named Fred
And a thousand noisy cows around us
We'd make sure they were all happy and fed

[Chorus]

And I wouldn't have to brush my teeth
Wouldn't have to comb my hair
And if I got real stinky, there'd be no one there to care
I wouldn't have to go to school
Clean my room or sweep the floor
The life of a cowboy, who could ask for more?

[Verse 2]

Every meal, I'd fix myself bacon and beans
And I'd spill bad coffee on my dusty old jeans (Darn it!)
I'd never be lonely cuz of all the mosquitoes and flies
To me, it sounds likе it would be cowboy paradise

[Chorus]

Cuz I wouldn't have to brush my teeth
Wouldn't havе to comb my hair
And if I got real stinky, there'd be no one there to care
I wouldn't have to go to school
Clean my room or sweep the floor
The life of a cowboy, who could ask for more?
[Verse 3]

At night, I'd have to be careful
Where I put my blanket down
Cuz of all the cactus and the cowpies all around (Ew!)
And the coyotes would be howling all night long
I'd join in singing this old cowboy song
Nothing would ever be wrong

[Chorus]

Cuz I wouldn't have to brush my teeth
Wouldn't have to comb my hair
And if I got real stinky, there'd be no one there to care
I wouldn't have to go to school
Clean my room or sweep the floor
The life of a cowboy, who could ask for more?
The life of a cowboy, who could ask for more?
The life of a cowboy is the life for me, I'm sure
Yippeekiyay!
