Modern Day Cowboy - Casey Daniels Band

Whiskey River ran dry and I’m the one that drank it

On the Highway to Hell, I’ve got the radio crankin'

Sheriff swears he can smell the weed burn

Hell yeah I’m getting high 'cause I’m the one who’s hurtin'

Starin' down the face of a double barrel

Got my hand on the wheel with my foot on the pedal

And if theres a problem we can get it settled

'Cause under my seat I got a .38 Special

I was born to be an outlaw and I can’t change

Just like my daddy, I’m stuck in my ways

A moonshine still, make a little cash

Ain’t got no friends that stab me in my back

I worry about myself and darlin' thats all

I’m a modern day cowboy, runnin' from the law

I keep my boots waiting for the knock on the door

It’s a quarter past 3:00, I bet I don’t see 4:00

Tell the preacher at the church, say a prayer for me

'Cause the sheriff brought a posse like I ain’t seen

This outlaw shit couldn’t get any worse

The only way I’m goin' down gotta leave in a hearse

The clock starts tickin' every shotgun blast

Can you let my father know I left the Bible on the dash

I was born to be an outlaw and I can’t change

Just like my daddy, I’m stuck in my ways

A moonshine still, make a little cash

Ain’t got no friends that stab me in my back

I worry about myself and darlin' thats all

I’m a modern day cowboy, runnin' from the law

When the sun comes up they’ll shoot a man down

Tell my mama that I love her and I’m sorry now

'Cause all she ever wanted was some company

Lord I know she can see my old man in me

I was born to be an outlaw and I can’t change

Just like my daddy, I’m stuck in my ways

A moonshine still, make a little cash

Ain’t got no friends that stab me in my back

I worry about myself and darlin' thats all

I’m a modern day cowboy, runnin' from the law

Modern day cowboy runnin'

Runnin', runnin'

A modern day cowboy

Runnin', runnin'

Runnin' modern day cowboy

Runnin'
