Glen Campbell - Rhinestone Cowboy Lyrics

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 compromising
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where
The lights are shining 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 coming over the phone

Well, I really don't mind the rain
And a smile can hide all the pain
But you're down when you're riding
The train that's taking 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 compromising
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where
The lights are shining on me

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse
In a star-spangled rodeo
Rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters
From people I don't even know
And offers coming 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
