Songwriter Story
Cowboy Swag Boogie
This song tells the story of a fresh-faced cowboy who rolls into town with confidence, style,
and a hunger for a good time. He is not looking to stir up trouble - he is looking for music,
movement, and a place where he can belong. With his Stetson hat tipped just right and his boots
ready to hit the floor, he heads straight for the local country bar everyone talks about, the
kind of place where the neon glows warm, the band kicks hard, and line dancing is more
than entertainment - it is the heartbeat of the room. The new cowboy is drawn in by that
energy, knowing this is where his kind of night begins.
Once inside, the story opens up into a celebration of rhythm, swagger, and community. The
bar becomes a stage where city cool meets country pride, and the new cowboy wins the
room not by saying much, but by joining the dance and living in the moment. As the crowd
stomps, slides, pivots, and shouts along, he goes from stranger to part of the party, carried
by the spirit of the music and the freedom of the dance floor. At its core, the song is about
arrival - stepping into a new place, finding your people, and letting loose in the one bar in
town where everybody knows that line dancing is the main event.
Cowboy Swag Boogie
Ridin’ on my horse, I’m the new cowboy in town
Got my Stetson hat, wearin’ boots with the crown
Saddle up y’all, we gonna ride tonight
Boogie till its broad daylight
One, two, a one, two, three, four
Cowboy swag boogie, that’s how we roll
Holding it down, from the saddle to the floor
Chest pumpin’, foot stompin’, grapevine or weave
Draw, tap, swivel or hang on my sleeve
Pivot, point, step, slide, rock or scuff
Cowboy swag boogie, can’t get enough!
In my Ford F150, rollin’ through the plains
That cowboy swag boogie, pumpin’ through my veins
Cowboy up, let the party begin
Glasses high, baby whiskey or gin
One, two, a one, two, three, four
Cowboy swag boogie, that’s how we roll
Holding it down, from the saddle to the floor
Chest pumpin’ foot stompin’, grapevine or weave
Draw, tap, swivel or hang on my sleeve
Pivot, point, step, slide, rock or scuff
Cowboy swag boogie, can’t get enough
So, saddle up, cowboys and cowgirls, let’s ride
Cowboy hats tilted low; we wear em’ with pride
Tonight, on the dance floor, is where we’ll be
Drinking, dancing and fancy free
One, two, a one, two, three, four
Cowboy swag boogie, that’s how we roll
Holding it down, from the saddle to the floor
Chest pumpin’, foot stompin’
, grapevine or weave
Draw, tap, swivel or hang on my sleeve
Pivot, point, step, slide, rock or scuff
Cowboy swag boogie, can’t get enough
Cowboy swag boogie, can’t get enough
