Iâve been walkinâ the streets so long,
Singinâ the same old song.
I know every crack on these dirty sidewalks of Broadway;
Where hustle is the name of the game,
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain.
Thereâs been a load of compromising,
On the road to my horizon.
But Iâm gonna be where the lights are shining on me;
Chorus:
Like a rhinestone cowboy,
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo.
Rhinestone cowboy,
Getting cards and letters from people I donât even know;
An offerâs cominâ over the phone.
Well I really donât mind the rain,
And a smile can hide the pain;
But youâre down when youâre ridinâ a train,
Thatâs takinâ the long way.
But I dream of the things I will do,
With subway ticket and a dollar tucked inside my shoe.
Thereâs been a load of compromising,
On the road to my horizon.
But Iâm goinâ where the lights are shining on me;
Chorus
v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v
