About the song
In the vast landscape of country music, where trends come and go like tumbleweeds in a dust storm, there are a few constants that remain as steadfast as the North Star. One such constant is **George Strait**, a name synonymous with authenticity, integrity, and the enduring spirit of the American cowboy. And when “The King” joins forces with a modern-day maverick like **Eric Church**, you know something special is about to happen.
Their collaboration on **”Cowboys Like Us”** is more than just a song; it’s a testament to the values that have shaped not only country music but the very fabric of our society. It’s a reminder of the importance of hard work, loyalty, and a deep connection to the land and its traditions.
**”Cowboys Like Us”** isn’t just a song; it’s a story. It’s a story about the men and women who built this country, the ones who weren’t afraid to get their hands dirty and who understood the value of a handshake and a promise. It’s a story about the kind of people who would give you the shirt off their back and the last dollar in their pocket.
Musically, the song is a perfect blend of Strait’s classic country sound and Church’s more contemporary edge. The instrumentation is top-notch, featuring the kind of soulful guitar work and heartfelt vocals that have become hallmarks of both artists’ careers.
But what truly sets **”Cowboys Like Us”** apart is its message. In a world that often seems to be spinning out of control, this song offers a sense of comfort and reassurance. It reminds us that there are still good people in the world, people who are willing to stand up for what’s right and who are proud to call themselves Americans.
So, whether you’re a lifelong fan of country music or someone who simply appreciates a well-crafted song with a powerful message, I encourage you to give **”Cowboys Like Us”** a listen. It’s a song that will stay with you long after the music fades away, a reminder of the values that make this country great.
And who knows, maybe it will even inspire a few more of us to be a little more like the cowboys (and cowgirls) of old.

Lyrics
I take off time to time
With those crazy friends of mine
Head out on steel horses
With wheels and we ride
We burn up that road to old Mexico
Blend in with the desert
Just we amigos
And we roll
And cowboys like us sure do have fun
Racing the wind, chasing the sun
Take the long way around back to square one
Today we’re just outlaws out on the run
There’ll be no regrets, no worries and such
For cowboys like us
We talk about living, babies and women
All that we’ve lost and all we’ve been giving
We sing about true love, lie about things we ain’t done
Drink one more cold one, come morning get up
And we roll
Cowboys like us sure do have fun
Racing the wind, chasing the sun
Take the long way around back to square one
Today we’re just outlaws out on the run
There’ll be no regrets, no worries and such
For cowboys like us
Cowboys like us sure do have fun
Racing the wind, chasing the sun
Take the long way around back to square one
Today we’re just outlaws out on the run
There’ll be no regrets, no worries and such
For cowboys like us
Cowboys like us
