Get Into Reggae Cowboy

Bellamy Brothers


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 

Repeat Chorus 

You've got to get into Reggae Cowboy 4x
