Even Cowboys Cry

Well, I bet your dad never showed you how to cry So you talked to your ceilings to get you by Well, baby I'll admit it, you put on a good show But I'm a half joint down, and I'm ready to go Tell me what'll get you dancing on those two left feet How 'bout I give you a smile and a kick drum beat? I've seen a glimpse of the child that you got inside When we're on the highway singing to the sky Maybe someday you'll ask him to stay for a while Everyone's fighting something And baby, I know you're tired Of building that fence so high So let it fall down tonight And I know that your boots are muddy But you can hang 'em up next to mine You ain't gotta lie 'Cause even cowboys cry Mama didn't make it easy in that one-room house Now you're seeing all things you had to live without You keep looking for love, but you're scared as hell But you keep finding reasons not to love yourself You know the walls won't cave when you ask for help Everyone's fighting something And baby, I know you're tired Of building that fence so high So let it fall down tonight And I know that your boots are muddy But you can hang 'em up next to mine You ain't gotta lie 'Cause even cowboys cry All those girls they come along and man, they fall so fast But you keep finding reasons you can't love them back And I'll never stop tryna heal your broken past You said compared to me, they're in white and black You said all them girls are in white and black
