Celtic Cowboy

He puts his hat on, 7:30
The taxi's waiting like a thousand times before
He don't believe the dream is gone

Surveys his kingdom
Like it could have been much more
Well he's got all the answers, for sure
He's just another chancer adding up his score

Here's to the Celtic Cowboy
King of the Horse Shoe Bar
Where everyone is listening all night
Drink to the Celtic Cowboy

The poetry in his soul
But something is missing
Deeper down inside
He could write a book
Or slay you with a song

He could paint a picture if you play along
Everybody's an Einstein inside
And there's no destination sweeter than the ride

Here's to the Celtic Cowboy
King of the Horse Shoe Bar
Where everyone is listening all night
Drink to the Celtic Cowboy

The poetry in his soul
But something is missing
Deeper down inside

As he walks the room
You'll see the seven mile stare
He's looking across that room
As if there's nobody there

Here's to the Celtic Cowboy
King of the Horse Shoe Bar
Where everyone is listening all night

Drink to the Celtic Cowboy
The poetry in his soul
But something is missing
Deeper down inside
