Lyrics of Rhinestone cowboy

I've been walking these streets so long
Singing 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 they 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 your riding 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 they 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

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
