“Cowboy Song” by Thin Lizzy originally appeared on their 1976 album Jailbreak.
Written from the perspective of a cowboy, the lyrics tell of his wandering across the United States through various adventures and romances. The song begins with a mellow acoustic, country music-style introduction before a transition to up-tempo hard rock.
“Cowboy Song” has since been described as one of Thin Lizzy’s great songs because it has “one of the catchiest, most memorable twin-guitar harmony leads ever”. AllMusic described the song as turning the commonplace into legend, or bringing myth into the modern world. The author of Phil Lynott: The Rocker, Mark Putterford, described the song as “a cross between Clint Eastwood and Rudolph Valentino, with a bit of George Best thrown in for good measure”. Rolling Stone magazine called the song “definitive”.
Over time, it has become a fan favourite and one of Thin Lizzy’s signature songs. The song is now one of their most popular and referred to as a classic.
