Rhinestone Cowboy
Lyric & Song by : Glen Campbell


I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know ev'ry crack and these
Dirty sidewalks of Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And nice guys get washed away
Like the snow and the rain
There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights
Are shinin' on me
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse
in a star-sprangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters from
people I don't even know
And offers coming over the phone

Well, I really don't mind the rain
And a smile can hide all the pain
But you're down when you're riding a train
That's taking the long way
And I dream of the things I'd do
With a subway token and dollar
Tucked inside my shoe
There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights
Are shinin' on me
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse
in a star-sprangled rodeo
Rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters from
people I don't even know
And offers coming over the phone

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse
in a star-sprangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters from
people I don't even know
And offers coming over the phone
