Early 80's, new wave/alternative. I even had the single on vinyl once. The lyrics went something like: "I want to be rough, I want to be tough, just like you. I'm a lonesome cowboy, yippie aye yea".
Note: there was another "lonesome cowboy" song out at about the same time and the two songs tend to get confused.

Good try, but that's not it unfortunatly. It was a much more obscure artist than the Velvet Underground. Thanks though.
The other song I was thinking of that was played a lot in the same circles at about the same time was "I Wanna Be Your Cowboy"

Urban Struggle by The Vandals? Not really close lyrically to what you posted but worth a shot maybe.

Ok, this time I think I got it but good luck verifying it. Is it Lonesome Cowboy by Cutting Edge?

No problem, hope you find it! It was starting to bug me that I couldn't find it and once I get pissed off there's no stopping me.
