Lyrics

Well I have been a cowboy, dang near all my life
That good ol' cowboy music is all I'm supposed to like
But here lately I don't know what's happening
But I'm losin' control I'm losin' control to a little longhaired outlaw
Who's a ridin' somewhere deep down in my soul he likes rock and roll

Well he rides a pinto stallion down the canyons of my mind
Makes camp beneath a memory below the timberline
Got a little electric fender guitar plugs direct into my soul
Right into my soul turns up the volume
Bends them guitar strings and plays that rock and roll ah and here he goes

Well I can be do a concert strummin' along just fine
Playing little joe the wrangler when somethin' snaps inside my mind
And I can feel that longhaired music wellin' up from the rivers of my soul
Where the music flows when that little longhair takes over
And makes me play that rock and roll

Now if you like cowboy music and you don't like this song
Well I'd like to apologize if the tune kinda came out wrong
But you see I can't help myself the little longhair has got control and he won't let go
But I'll get back to my cowboy music
But sometimes you gotta play a little rock and roll
It's my turn it's about time
