Interesting facts and trivia about Cowboy - 2018 Remaster. By Songfacts®.

In this song, Kid Rock raps about heading west to conquer California, envisioning himself as a trailer park cowboy riding into town with a bottle of beer and a bad attitude. He makes it clear he's no N.W.A.: I'm not straight outta Compton, I'm straight out the trailer

The video for this song is an homage to the movie Smokey And The Bandit. Directed by Dave Meyers, it culminates in a showdown between Rock's 3'9" sidekick Joe C. (R.I.P.) and '80s television star Gary Coleman, who is also rather short. According to Coleman, Joe C. was rather pugnacious from the moment they met, telling Coleman he could beat him up in real life. Gary says he went easy on him because Joe said he had medical issues and bruised easily. And to raise the bonkers factor even higher, adult film star Ron Jeremy appears in the video as the piano player.

One of the lines in the song is: "Start an escort service for all the right reasons." When asked what the right reasons are, Rock has said, "To get paid. To make money."
