What More Could a Cowboy Need
Cowboy's Journey: Love, Family, and the Open Road
Lyrics
Well I spent half my life out on the highway
Expressing a significant portion of life spent traveling on the highway.
Chasin' rodeos through every little town
Describing the pursuit of rodeos in various small towns.
In an old pickup truck with a little cowboy luck
Depicting the journey in an old pickup truck with a touch of cowboy luck.
Well I never thought I'd ever settle down
Initially not expecting to settle down, indicating a nomadic lifestyle.
Back then I didn't know what I was missin'
Reflecting on the lack of awareness about what was missing during that time.
Just a runnin' wild and livin' fancy free
Describing a period of running wild and living without commitments.
I had money in my jeans and my gold buckle dreams
Having money and dreams associated with winning gold buckles in rodeos.
And I swore no woman would ever capture me
Making a vow to avoid being captured by any woman.
But now things have changed and I'm happy
Expressing contentment and happiness with the current changes in life.
I got a women that I love and three boys that call me pappy
Listing the positive aspects of the current life, including a loving woman and three sons.
Got the good Lord up above I'm in a country that I love
Acknowledging the presence of the good Lord and expressing love for the country.
Now what more could a cowboy ever need
Pondering on the completeness of a cowboy's life, posing a rhetorical question.
Yea I had everything I ever wanted and a woman couldn't fit into my world
Recalling a time when material possessions were abundant but lacked a compatible woman.
Cause I had broncs to ride and a million miles to drive
Justifying the inability to have a steady relationship due to the demands of a cowboy's life.
And a cowboy just can't have a steady girl
Reiterating the challenges of maintaining a committed relationship as a cowboy.
But now things have changed...
Repeating the theme of positive changes in life.
Got the good Lord up above I'm in a country that I love
Reaffirming gratitude for the good Lord and love for the country.
Now what more could a cowboy ever need
Pondering again on the completeness of a cowboy's life, echoing the earlier question.
