He was rugged as a prairie in the middle of July
Riding tall in solitary, blowing smoke rings at the sky
He was rough around the edges like the outer county lines
If he was here right now, I swear I'd make him mine

What ever happened to the Marlboro man?
Did he finally tame the west? Ride off in that sunset
Was he looking for a wild flame to light him up again?
'Cause right now I could use a Marlboro, Marlboro man

I don't smoke much, but I would if he handed me a light
I don't ride horses, but I could if he offered me a ride
I would worry 'bout him all day, let him keep me up all night
Bet you I could make him show a softer side

What ever happened to the Marlboro man?
Did he finally tame the west? Ride off in that sunset
Was he looking for a wild flame to light him up again?
'Cause right now I could use a Marlboro, Marlboro man

Maybe it's just sweet nostalgia
From a western movie scene
But I like to think he ain't a dying breed

Man, I wish I knew the Marlboro man
Someone strong enough to love me how I am
I could be his wild flame, to light him up again
Right now I could use a Marlboro, Marlboro man

Marlboro man
