My Little Cowboy

Craig Campbell
I throwed and I throwed that old rope
at that make believe steer
i'd never been so frustrated in all my nine years
I was about to give up on that old bail of hay
when from the front porch I hear my dad say
My little cowboy
you make me so proud boy
don't give upnow cause i know that somehow
you'll firgure it out
my little cowboy
I played and i played this old bar
trying to make the big time
i stayed broke which was cool
until along came a kid and a wife
that's when i called up my dad, isaid today is the day
it's time to put this old guitar away
and he said
My little cowboy
you make me so proud boy
don't give upnow cause i know that somehow
you'll firgure it out
my little cowboy
now i've got a boy of my own
with his own set of dreams
he works hard to play quarterback
for his pee-wee league team
a blue star on his helmet, our last name on his back
three downs in a row, all end with a sack
and i hollered out
that's my little cowboy
you make me so proud, boy
don't give uo now
cause I know that somehow
you'll throw that touchdown oh, my little cowboy
my little cowboy
