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 spangled 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 spangled 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 spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters From
people I don't even know
And Offers coming over
