Daddy always told me
Son you gotta be a man
Play the cards you're dealt

Like it might be your last hand
Now that I'm older
Think I realize

Underneath the blood and sweat
Every cowboy cries


(Chorus)

So be a man

Cowboy up
Can't be afraid
If you're runnin' out of luck

Sometimes life
Is harder than it seems
It's okay


To get a little dirty


(Verse 2)

Workin' hard everyday and night

Bustin' $$# to just get by
Some things you just gotta do
Buckle up and make it through

Get back up when you get thrown
You'll be old before you know
Bm

Always try to do what's right
And never back down
From a fight


(Chorus)


So be a man
Cowboy up
Can't be afraid

If you're runnin' out of luck
Sometimes life
Is harder than it seems

It's okay

To get a little dirty



(Verse 3)


Once met a lady
Who said treat me like a queen

Give me anything I want
If you know what I mean
Took her by the hand

Straight into heaven
Little did I know
She would show me


How to be a man
Cowboy up

Can't be afraid
If you're runnin' out of luck
Sometimes life

Is harder than it seems
It's okay


To get a little dirty

Get a little dirty


Yea get a little dirty
