Stared out just a young cowboy writin' songs on a cheap guitar Melodies were kind of rough but you knew they came from the heart But if not for you I'd never could have ever got this far Yeah you helped me grow and I owe you more than you'll ever know From the days at the Terrace Ballroom well me made it up to Symphony Hall I played my songs and you sang along and man we really had a ball And you brought your little children and I've seen 'em all grow tall Yeah I watched you grow and I owe you more than you'll ever know And all the wild and wooly cowboys dancin' and yellin' for more Your hats and suites an cowboy boots stompin' on a hardwood floor And you qaltzed those Utah ladies beneath the spotlight glow Yeah you helped me grow and I owe you more than you'll ever know I owe you more than you'll ever know
