[Intro]
Here to honor Toby's memory with one of his greatest songs
Another friend who loved him very much, Jason Aldean, everybody

[Verse 1]
Well, I bet you never heard ol' Marshal Dillon say
"Miss Kitty, have you ever thought of running away
Settling down, would you marry me
If I asked you twice and begged you pretty please?"
She'da said yes in a New York minute
They never tied the knot, his heart wasn't in it
He stole a kiss as hе rode away
He nevеr hung his hat up at Kitty's place

[Chorus]
Shoulda been a cowboy
Shoulda learned to rope and ride
Wearing my six-shooter
Riding my pony on a cattle drive
Stealing a young girl's heart
Just like Gene and Roy
Singing those campfire songs
Woah, I shoulda been a cowboy

[Verse 2]
I mighta had a sidekick with a funny name
Running wild through the hills chasing Jesse James
Ending up on the brink of danger
Riding shotgun for the Texas Rangers
Go west, young man, haven't you been told?
California's full of whiskey, women and gold
Sleeping out all night 'neath the desert stars
With a dream in my eye and a prayer in my heart
[Chorus]
I shoulda been a cowboy
Shoulda learned to rope and ride
Wearing my six-shooter
Riding my pony on a cattle drive
Stealing a young girl's heart
Just like Gene and Roy
Singing those campfire songs
Woah, I shoulda been a cowboy

[Chorus]
Shoulda been a cowboy
Shoulda learned to rope and ride
I'd be wearing my six-shooter
Riding my pony on a cattle drive
Stealing a young girl's heart
Just like Gene and Roy
Singing those campfire songs
Woah, I shoulda been a cowboy

[Outro]
Yeah, I shoulda been a cowboy
Shoulda been a cowboy
We love you, Toby
