ACM and CMA Award-winning artist Jon Pardi and five-time Entertainer of the Year Luke Bryan today released the official video for their hit collaboration, “Cowboys and Plowboys.” Filmed outside of Nashville and in California, the video was directed by Shaun Silva and features Rodeo Champions including Kyle Lockett, Bert McGill, Dallas Owen, Dakota Eldridge, Jordan Ketscher, Shelby Cole, Jaylee McGill, and Wayce McGill.
Bryan and Pardi both teased news of the video earlier this week on their socials with a live performance clip of the song taken from Luke Bryan’s annual Crash My Playa event in Mexico.
Written by Rhett Akins, Jacob Rice and Cole Taylor, “Cowboys and Plowboys” is currently climbing the charts on Country radio and is the latest single from newly inducted Grand Ole Opry member Pardi, who recently became the only California native invited in Grand Ole Opry history. Named a “hero in the making” (Variety), Pardi has earned six No. 1s on country radio to date and is noted for his “long-lasting mark on the genre” (MusicRow) and his impressive ability to carve out his own path creating “the kind of country music multiple generations came to know, and love can still wok on a mass scale” (Variety).

“Cowboys And Plowboys” Lyrics:
I wear a 20X American hat
A gold buckle from a rodeo
I wear a dusty old co-op cap
Make my living on them old turn rows
I ride a quarter horse, my tractor’s right here
I drink whiskey, and I drink beer
Cowboys and plowboys
Just some good old small town boys
Both make the world go ’round boys
Boy, ain’t that the truth
Yeah, we got different roots, we wear different boots
But we ain’t that different when the day is through
So, here’s to the cowboys and plowboys like me and you
Just like me and you
I take my girl to the honky tonk
I two-step and I spin her around
I take mine to them fields of gold
Hold her tight while the sun goes down
Cowboys and plowboys
Just some good old small town boys
Both make the world go ’round boys
Boy, ain’t that the truth
Yeah, we got different roots, we wear different boots
But we ain’t that different when the day is through
So, here’s to the cowboys and plowboys like me and you
Just like me and you
We crank some George Strait, we crank some old Hank
From the big sky to the riverbank
Cowboys and plowboys
Just some good old small town boys
Both make the world go ’round boys
Boy, ain’t that the truth
Yeah, we got different roots, we wear different boots
But we ain’t that different when the day is through
So, here’s to the cowboys and plowboys like me and you
Just like me and you
Just like us, Pardi
You got that right, Luke
