Lyrics
Chorus:
Roll on the night
When they bring down the lights on you
Your the Rodeo Star
Just playin’ the part
Of a movie in your heart
Got a cowboy in my car
And he thinks he’s a Rodeo Star
But when the lights go down and night comes round
And I’m alone in my heart
On a runaway American dream
Got a Cadillac painted in green
And as I pick up my ride
I head out on a night
Only I could dream
Repeat Chorus
But my old man he said to me
You know son if it’s meant it can be
But as I’m passing these streets full of dead beats
Wondering which one might become me
And I stop to pick up my last fare
Down in Nashville’s East Music Square
And Johnny Cash gets in jumps in my back
And I say hey man not even my mum sits there
Repeat Chorus
They don’t make them the way they used to do
Old Hank he wails out to Emmylou (Emmylou Emmylou)
But I’m just a cowboy on autocue
Got a movie in my heart... La La La La La La La
Repeat Chorus
