"God Must Be a Cowboy" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Dan Seals. It was released in January 1984 as the fourth and final single from his album Rebel Heart. It was also his first top 10 hit, reaching #10. It is the album's most successful single.
The music video, directed by Neil Abramson, is one of three videos Seals filmed specially for his 1991 video compilation, A Portrait. The video shows Seals singing the song in the middle of a highway in a desert and also shows footage and photographs of a mix of ranches and cowboys in their typical lifestyle.
