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 

Soft refrains on a steel guitar 

Beautiful rhythms on the tradewinds 

Blowing in to a Florida farm 



Repeat Chorus 



You've got to get into Reggae Cowboy 4x
