Text: Blake Shelton. The Dreamer. Asphalt Cowboy.

The sun has opened up my eyes
And I don't wanna leave your side for that lonesome road
But here I go climbing back behind the wheel
Fiffty feet of chrome and steel and a load they need in Chicago

Through the middle of the night unknown
I'm on a ride that won't let me go

I'm an asphalt cowboy, born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
Just ride, ride until I'm back in your arms again
I'll be out here on the wind

Sometimes late at night I see your picture by the dashboard light
And it takes me where I'd like to be
Wrapped up in a blanket there pulling ribbons from your hair
And your kiss, girl, that's what I miss

Still I drive these horses through the rain and snow
This high speed rodeo is all I know

I'm an asphalt cowboy, born to run underneath the stars
Pay no mind to my lonely heart
Just ride, ride until I'm back in your arms again
I'll be out here on the wind
And I'll drive until I'm back in your arms again
I'll be out here on the wind and

And I'll ride through the middle of the night unknown
On a ride that won't let me go
Asphalt cowboy
