AROUND TOWN (lyrics)

I say, those boots look a little out of place.
My my, don't you talk like it's a race?
Hey, you, you're tryin' so hard, more'n anyone.
Yeah, you, you're tryin' so hard, but are you havin' fun?

Won't somebody tell him he's not a cowboy?!
I hear, if shaken, he's more like a kid's toy.
I don't wanna hear another word.
Have you heard? You're absurd.
Take your hat off, climb down off your high horse
That's the word
Around town.

Indeed, you got your guitar slung all permanent.
And how, you talk your talk like you're sure of it.
Mister, you're lookin' like you in a rodeo.
Yes sir, you're lookin' like you don't know where to go.

Won't somebody tell him he's not a cowboy?!
Don't mistake him for a Dude Ranch FBI decoy.
I don't wanna hear another word,
Have you heard? You're absurd.
Pack your ranch up, quit your line dance class
That's the word
Around town.

Don't you know, anywhere you
You be causin' confusion?
You got the look down-pat, and the way you act
But it's all an illusion
In your head.

Won't somebody tell him he's not a cowboy?!
All tressed up like a man, but he's just a little boy.
You're livin' in the big smoke
Actin' yoke, going broke.
Take your hat off, climb down off your high
You're a joke.
