| Well, I walk into
the room passin' out hundred dollar bills.
An' it kills and
it thrills like the horns on my Silverado
grille.
An' I buy the bar a double round of Crown
an' everybody's getting down,
An' this town ain't never gonna be the same. |

passin'
passing
An' and it
kills and it thrills like the horns on my Silverado
grille It's really exciting, like the cattle horns I have decorating
the front of my Chevorlet Silverado pickup truck
buy the bar a double round And I buy two
drinks for each person in the bar Crown Crown
Royal (expensive whiskey) everybody's getting down
everyone is having a good time
ain't never will never

| CHORUS
'Cause I saddle up my horse an' I ride into
the city.
I make a lot of noise 'cause the girls they are so pretty.
Ridin' up an' down Broadway on my old stud,
Leroy.
And the girls say, "Save a horse, ride a cowboy."
Everybody says, "Save a horse, ride a cowboy." |
|
'Cause because
stud male horse whose primary job is getting
female horses pregnant
Save a horse, ride a cowboy Don't ride a
horse, have sex with a cowboy
|
Well, I
don't give a dang about nothing
I'm singing an' bling-blanging while
the girls are drinkin' long necks down!
An' I wouldn't trade ol' Leroy or my Chevrolet for your Escalade,
or your freak parade.
I'm the only John
Wayne left in this town.
CHORUS |
|
I don't
give a dang about nothing I don't care about anything (dang
is a polite form of damn) bling-blanging
showing off my wealth (this term is borrowed from hip hop and is not usually
associated with country music)
long necks beer in glass bottles
Escalade expensive Cadillac SUV (Sports Utility
Vehicle) freak parade strange people
I'm the only John
Wayne left in this town. I am the
only real cowboy (like classic cowboy actor John Wayne)

"Well, I'm a thoroughbred."
That's what she said in the back of my truck bed,
As I was gettin' buzzed
on suds, out on some back country road.
We were flyin' high, fine as wine,
Having ourselves a Big and Rich time
An' I was going just about as far as she'd let
me go.
But her evaluation of my cowboy reputation
Had me beggin' for salvation all night long.
So I took her out, gigging frogs,
Introduced her to my
old bird dog
An' sang her every Wilie Nelson song I could
think of.
An' we made love
CHORUS
What? What?
"Save a horse, ride a cowboy."
Everybody says, "Save a horse, ride a cowboy." |

thoroughbred top quality person from a good family (usually refers
to a top quality purebred horse)
gettin' getting buzzed
on suds drunk on beer
flyin' high, fine as wine drunk and happy
Big and Rich time a great time (double meaning:
Big and Rich is also the name of the performers)
I was going just about as far as she'd let me go
we were kissing and touching, but no more
her evaluation...all night long. She didn't
think I was a real cowboy, so I had to try
to convince her
gigging frogs catching
frogs by stabbing them with a spear
bird dog dog trained to hunt for birds
Wilie Nelson famous country singer
gigging frogs, bird dogs and Willie Nelson
are all associated with country people--the singer uses these activities
to impress this woman that he is really a cowboy
we made love we had sex (polite form)
