Boy in Cowboy

Baby you're so cool

With your Wranglers and your boots

You act tough till things get a little bit tougher than you

I know you don't want strings

Yeah, you just want me

Wrapped around your finger, loose enough to never really tie you down

'Cause there's always a bigger sky in a better town

You put the boy in cowboy

You put the ride off into the sun

You ain't restless, you're just selfish

And you don't ever wanna to grow up

This ain't a movie

You ain't John Wayne

But this is the part where you watch me leave

You put the boy in cowboy

You ain't the man for me, no

Baby you're so free

Like you say you were born to be

Don't you know that freedom's just another word for lonely

I guess you'll have yourself to keep you company

You put the boy in cowboy

You put the ride off into the sun

You ain't restless, you're just selfish

And you don't ever wanna to grow up

This ain't a movie

You ain't John Wayne

But this is the part where you watch me leave

You put the boy in cowboy

You ain't the man for me

And you'll never be

You put the boy in cowboy

You put the ride off into the sun

Tell yourself that you can't help it but running don't run in the blood

This ain't a movie

You ain't John Wayne

But this is the part where you watch me leave

You put the boy in cowboy

You ain't the man for me

And you'll never be

And you'll never be
