Yeah, sometimes you eat the dust, sometimes you ride the storm

I rolled into San Antone, boots full of dreams and pain

Eight seconds from glory, but I hit that dirt again

She said, Cowboy, I’m tired of losing, tired of waiting on a win

And she slammed that door so hard, it rattled deep within

But I hit big in Boulder, the crowd screamed my name

Felt that old fire burnin’ like a wild runaway train

Life’s a bull that bucks you harder when you think you’re done

But I keep ridin’, bleedin’, believin’

’Cause I ain’t done holdin’ on

Got a buckle full of scratches, a soul that won’t stay down

Every fall’s a lesson learned in this two-bit cowboy town

She’s probably somewhere dancin’ where the neon lights don’t fade

But I’m still out here swingin’ for that one last lucky break

Yeah, I hit big in Boulder, the dust turned to flame

Felt that wind of redemption callin’ out my name

Life’s a bull that bucks you harder when you think you’re done

But I keep ridin’, bleedin’, believin’

’Cause I ain’t done holdin’ on

Now the road keeps rollin’ under, stars light my worn-out trail

Every scar’s a story written where the good ones never fail

I ain’t prayin’ for the fortune, just the strength to face the fall

’Cause a man ain’t truly broken if he still gives it his all

They say love and luck are two sides of the same old coin

And I lost one in the dirt, but I’ll flip the other ’til I join

The legends ridin’ high in that midnight sky

’Cause a cowboy’s heart don’t quit, it just learns how to ride

Hit big in Boulder, yeah, I found my song

Got a heart full of dust and a soul still strong

Life’s a bull that bucks you harder when you think you’re done

But I keep ridin’, bleedin’, believin’

Yeah, I’m still holdin’ on

Holdin’ on in Boulder

You can knock me down, but I’ll keep ridin’ on
