lirik lagu i wish you would’ve been a cowboy – adeem the artist
[verse 1]
i was only five years old when your song came out
i heard “should’ve been a cowboy” on the radio
screaming from the dash of my daddy’s pre*owned camry
in between dwight yoakam and diamond rio
[pre*chorus]
it was the first of many verses that i memorized loosely
h*ll, it ain’t like you were garth
but you were one of a hundred favorite artists on the country charts
[hook]
i know this is a long time coming
your mailbox money isn’t gonna go away
it’s hard to know where to start
but i’ve got a few things to say
your twenty*minute song props up fascists
while you brag about kicking asses
with a boot in your mouth, exploiting the american south
you helped turn my culture into a parody
milking laborers for your prosperity
i wish you would’ve been a cowboy, toby keith
[verse 2]
i was only 13 when the towers fell
heard your national anthem rewrite on cmt
you were celebrating war with eagles and star*spangled anger
spinning lives and loss into stage props and radio plays
[pre*chorus]
well i heard from lady liberty and she ain’t happy
says you misquoted her views
but you were confident and full*chested sitting there on fox news
[hook]
there were not a lot of places where a kid like me felt heard and understood
but weren’t you sitting in your big house counting your money when you wrote “trailerhood”?
you wore my life like a costume on the tv
milking laborers for your prosperity
i wish you would’ve been a cowboy, toby keith
