Dumb dita dumb dita dumb dita dumb dita da da da da da
Well, I walk into the room, passing out hundred dollar bills
And I buy the bar a double-round of Crown, and everybody's
Gettin' down
And this town ain't never gonna be the same
Cause I saddle up my horse and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise, cause the girls they are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway on my ol' stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Everybody says, save a horse, ride a cowboy
Well, I don't give a dang about nothing
I'm singing and bling-blinging
While the girls are drinking long-necks down
And I wouldn't trade ol' Leroy or my Chevrolet
For your Escalade, or your freak parade
I'm the only John Wayne left in this town
And I saddle up my horse and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise, cause the girls they are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway on my ol' stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Everybody says, save a horse, ride a cowboy
Well I'm a thoroughbred, that's what she said, in the back of my truckbed
As I was getting buzzed on sud's, out on some back country road
We were flying high, fine as wine, having ourselvese a Big & Rich time
And I was going just about as far as she'd let me go
But her evaluation of my cowboy reputation, had me begging
For salvation all night long
So I took her out giggin' frogs, introduced her to my ol' bird dog
Sang her every Willie Nelson song I could think of
And we made love
And I saddle up my horse and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise cause the girls they are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway on my ol' stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Everybody says save a horse, ride a cowboy
What, what, save a horse, ride a cowboy
Everybody says, save a horse, ride a cowboy

Dumb dita dumb dita dumb dita dumb dita da da
Repeating a simple, catchy phrase to get people excited and dancing
Well, I walk into the room, passing out hundred dollar bills
Entering a space with confidence, wealth, and a desire to have fun
And kills and it thrills, like the horns on my Silverado grill
Enjoying the power and attention that comes with having a flashy, expensive car
And I buy the bar a double-round of Crown, and everybody's Gettin’ down
Showing off generosity and wealth by buying expensive drinks for everyone
And this town ain't never gonna be the same
Leaving a lasting impact on a small town with one's flashy, fun-loving behavior
Cause I saddle up my horse and I ride into the city
Continuing one's confident, fun-loving behavior by riding into the city on a horse
I make a lot of noise, cause the girls they are so pretty
Attracting attention from attractive women by being loud and flashy
Riding up and down Broadway on my ol' stud Leroy
Cruising through a lively, exciting part of town on a trusty horse
And the girls say Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Women find cowboys on horses very attractive and want to be with them
Well, I don’t give a dang about nothing
Being carefree and not worrying about anything
I'm singing and bling-blinging
Having fun by singing and wearing flashy jewelry
While the girls are drinking long-necks down
Enjoying a night out with women drinking beer
And I wouldn't trade ol' Leroy or my Chevrolet
Valuing one's trusty horse and reliable car more than expensive luxury items
For your Escalade, or your freak parade
Rejecting luxurious SUVs and flashy lifestyles
I'm the only John Wayne left in this town
Seeing oneself as a tough, independent cowboy like the famous actor John Wayne
And I saddle up my horse and I ride into the city
Continuing one's confident, fun-loving behavior by riding into the city on a horse
I make a lot of noise, cause the girls they are so pretty
Attracting attention from attractive women by being loud and flashy
Riding up and down Broadway on my ol' stud Leroy
Cruising through a lively, exciting part of town on a trusty horse
And the girls say Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Women find cowboys on horses very attractive and want to be with them
Well I'm a thoroughbred, that's what she said, in the back of my truckbed
Being highly desirable, as stated by a woman in a sexual situation
As I was getting buzzed on sud's, out on some back country road
Drinking beer while driving on a rural road
We were flying high, fine as wine, having ourselvese a Big & Rich time
Enjoying life and having fun with the person one is with
And I was going just about as far as she'd let me go
Being sexually active with a partner and stopping when asked to
But her evaluation of my cowboy reputation, had me begging For salvation all night long
Feeling insecure about one's reputation as a cowboy and seeking validation from a partner
So I took her out giggin' frogs, introduced her to my ol' bird dog
Sharing one's hobbies and interests with a partner, and introducing them to one's pets
Sang her every Willie Nelson song I could think of And we made love
Sharing one's love of country music with a partner and becoming intimate
And I saddle up my horse and I ride into the city
Continuing one's confident, fun-loving behavior by riding into the city on a horse
I make a lot of noise cause the girls they are so pretty
Attracting attention from attractive women by being loud and flashy
Riding up and down Broadway on my ol' stud Leroy
Cruising through a lively, exciting part of town on a trusty horse
And the girls say Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Women find cowboys on horses very attractive and want to be with them
Everybody says save a horse, ride a cowboy
Many people appreciate and admire cowboys on horses
What, what, save a horse, ride a cowboy
Reiterating the popular phrase and having fun with it
