"Ghetto Cowboy" is the lead single from the Mo Thugs album, Chapter II: Family Reunion. The song is produced by Romeo Antonio and performed by Krayzie Bone and Layzie Bone, both of Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, along with new members of the Mo Thugs collective, Thug Queen and Powder P and a chorus by Layzie Bone's wife Felecia.
The harmonica instrumental was performed by Jimmy Zavala (aka "Jimmy Z"), who also had a popular single of his own called "Funky Flute" with Dr. Dre in 1991.
The song became the most successful single for the collective. It peaked at 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 while also reaching the top spot on the Hot Rap Singles chart.
