I was walking down Broadway New York, New York Tony Llama boots and a Stetson hat Proud to be a country boy Just then a messenger called me Rasta man on the road He said 'You gotta get the rhythm of the islands Help me carry my load'
Chorus: You've got to get into Reggae Cowboy Shuffle them boots on the street Get into Reggae Cowboy Feel that Reggae beat hey hey hey hey
His message hit me like a brick man First I laughed, then I cried Somewhere between Jamaica and Nashville I realized I'd live my life These days I sit in my garden Soften frames on a steel guitar Beautiful rhythms on the tradewinds Blowing in to a Florida farm
