"
I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song.
I know every crack in 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.
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know.
And offers comin' 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 ridin' the train.
That's takin' the long way.
And I dream of the things I'll do.
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe.
There'll be 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 comin' 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....
