Urban Struggle - The Vandals

I want to be a Cowboy

I’m going to be a Cowboy

I’m born to be a Cowboy

I want to be a Cowboy

A Cowboy!

(Uh-huh)

Tonight we’re taking my fast car

Were gonna go down to the Cowboy bar

I’m gonna wait till the club is full

And I’m gonna ride the mechanical bull

Cowboy look is the one I sought

Can’t change now cause the clothes are bought

To be a true Cowboy was my fate

I can’t help it if I was born late

All the Cowgirls in their Stetson hats

And their tight-fitting jeans so they don’t look fat

We’ll all be listening to the Cowboy tunes

And stomp around like a bunch of goons

Cowboy look is the one I sought

Can’t change now cause the clothes are bought

To be a true cowboy was my fate

I can’t help it if I was born late

We’re all OD’d on the Olden West

Seein' who’s Cowboy clothes look the best

I can ride that phony bull so damn good

Sometimes I think I’m Clint Eastwood

Cowboy look is the one I sought

Can’t change now cause the clothes are bought

To be a true cowboy was my fate

I can’t help it if I was born late

I know I’m a Cowboy deep inside

My hat band’s made out of synthetic rattle snake hide

After a couple shit kickin' Cowboy movies

I’ll check out the Cowboy scene down at Zubie’s

Cowboy look is the one I sought

Can’t change now cause the clothes are bought

To be a true cowboy was my fate

I can’t help it if I was born late

Find out who all fights the best

We start fights with them punks at the Cuckoo’s Nest

Those damn punks are crazy though

And meaner than a bull at a rodeo

Cowboy look is the one I sought

Can’t change now cause the clothes are bought

To be a true cowboy was my fate

I can’t help it if I was born late

You call me an Urban clone of course

A big deal if I’m afraid to ride a horse

With a broken nose and a fucked up knee

Maybe this Cowboy scene just ain’t for me

Cowboy look is the one I sought

Can’t change now cause the clothes are bought

To be a true cowboy was my fate

I can’t help it if I was born late

Yee Haw, woo-woo, Yee Haw

Woo-woo, Yee Haw

Cowboy look is the one I sought

Can’t change now cause the clothes are bought

To be a true cowboy was my fate

I can’t help it if I was born late

I couldn’t make it as a Punker
