Lyrics

I was born and raised in the red clay hills of texas
In the land where the grass gets only beer can tall
That's where I learned to cuss and fight and chew brown mule tobacco
Fix windmills fore I was five years old
I rode every head of stock from the gulf to kansas city
And running wild is all I've ever known
But this cowboy's got a weakness for tight levis and yellow ribbons
And there's something bout 'em I can't leave alone
Tight levis and yellow ribbons make a cowboy swim a river
That before he jumps he knows is way too wide
And they'll make him throw a saddle on a bronc he's never seen
And one he knows he'll never break to ride
[ guitar ]
I met her at a rodeo in douglas arizona
I'd drawn the rankest horse a man could draw
Well I rode him tall and spurred him high and when I made the whistle
The crowd went wild but she was all I saw
That night we had a beer or two with friends of mine from dallas
She smiled and said she loved the texas drawl
And I felt like roy rogers did in all those cowboy movies
Cause I became the hero got the money girl and all
Tight levis and yellow ribbons..
Yeah they'll make him throw a saddle..
