Biography:
Austin Texas in the 1970s saw the rise of a number of artists and Michael Murphey (as he was known then) is one of them. Carolina In The Pines and What's Forever For were chart hits for Michael, but over the years he's proven another song was the most prophetic - he really did just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy and in the later years he's filled the niche of Cowboy singer. Still his voice is a strong instrument and he's a likable performer.

[Verse 1]
C G
He ain't been right since she's been gone
C
He's been known to tie one on
G
Glass could break and chairs could fly
C
We best keep him occupied
[Chorus]
C G
Let the cowboy dance let him dance all night
C
Maybe he won't fuss maybe he won't fight
G
It's our only hope it's our only chance
C
Clear the floor boys and let the cowboy dance
[Verse 2]

Let him kick up his heels or he'll kick down doors

Give him lots of room when he hits the floor

If he ask to dance with your wife

Let her go boy and save your life

Let the cowboy dance let him dance all night
