  • I hate cowboys
    Their hats just look so stupid
    Hate their Wranglers and their boots
    And all them jukebox red dirt songs
    Man, I hate cowboys
    They think they're scared of nothin'
    Run their mouths about bulls buckin'
    But eight seconds ain't that long
    I wish they'd stay their ass at home

    'Cause they think that they're John Wayne walkin' through the door
    Turnin' every head including yours
    Pretty thing that's never seen one before
    Has got a thing for bad guys, yeah
    They ask her to dance while you're at the bar
    Starts talkin' 'bout them Texas stars
    Next thing you know you got a broken heart
    She's gone and that's why I hate cowboys

    How they're gone just like the wind
    They took her heart one on the chin
    And I still ended up on the losing end

    'Cause they think that they're John Wayne walkin' through the door
    Turnin' every head including yours
    Pretty thing that's never seen one before
    Has got a thing for bad guys, yeah
    They ask her to dance while you're at the bar
    Starts talkin' 'bout them Texas stars
    Next thing you know you got a broken heart
    She's gone and that's why I hate cowboys
    Yeah, I hate cowboys

    I hear they ain't all bad and that might be true
    But the ones I run into

    Man, they think that they're John Wayne walkin' through the door
    Turnin' every head including yours
    Pretty thing that's never seen one before
    Has got a thing for bad guys, yeah
    They ask her to dance while you're at the bar
    Starts talkin' 'bout them Texas stars
    Next thing you know you got a broken heart
    She's gone and that's why I hate cowboys (yes, I do)
    Yeah, that's why I hate cowboys

    From Tex' Arcane, old Oklahoma
    Up in Montana to California
    While she's yours, you better hold on tight
    'Cause once she rides into the night
    You'll hate cowboys
    Just like I hate cowboys, yeah Writer/s: Brad Tursi, Chase Rice, Michael Hardy, Ross Copperman
