Lyrics:

Words & Music By Larry Weiss

i've Been Walkin' These Streets So Long
singin' 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 Compromisin'
on The Road To My Horizon
but I'm Gonna Be Where The Lights Are Shinin' 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 Comin' 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 Ridin' The Train That's Takin' 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 Compromisin'
on The Road To My Horizon
but I'm Gonna Be Where The Lights Are Shinin' On Me

like A Rhinestone Cowboy
riding Out On A Horse In A Star-Spangled Rodeo
rhinestone Cowboy
gettin' Cards And Letters From People I Don't Even Know
and Offers Comin' Over The Phone

like A Rhinestone Cowboy
riding Out On A Horse In A Star-Spangled Rodeo

rhinestone Cowboy
gettin' Cards And Letters From People I Don't Even Know
