The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are the reason a 35-year-old hard-rock staple is back on 74 country and platform charts today. Their long-running routine set to the track — traced by The Tab to lyrics name-checking Texas — has drawn fresh attention after the group's renewed reality-TV visibility, sending the song back into rotation following a three-week dip. The lead single from The Razors Edge, built on Angus Young's tapped guitar figure and a crowd chant of the title word, has always translated to spectacle: it scored TV spots for Iron Man 2 in 2010 and later turned up in Deadpool 2. Its return is a vintage resurgence driven by choreography, not nostalgia. Watch whether the cheerleader clip has legs.
