I`ve been walkin` the streets so long, Singin` the same old song. I know every crack on these dirty sidewalks of Broadway; Where hustle is the name of the game, And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain. There`s been a load of compromising, On the road to my horizon. But I`m gonna be where the lights are shining on me; CHORUS: Like a rhinestone cowboy, Riding out on a horse in a starspangled rodeo. Rhinestone cowboy, Getting cards and letters from people I don`t even know; An offer`s comin` over the phone. Well I really don`t mind the rain, And a smile can hide the pain; But you`re down when you`re ridin` a train, That`s takin` the long way. But I dream of the things I will do, With subway ticket and a dollar tucked inside my shoe. There`s been a load of compromising, On the road to my horizon. But I`m goin` where the lights are shining on me; CHORUS:...
