Even Cowboys Cry

Well, I bet your daddy never showed you how to cry

So you talked to your ceilings to get you by

Oh, 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 child that you've got inside

When you're on the highway singing to the sky

And maybe someday you'll ask him to stay for a while

Everyone's fightin' somethin'

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 them 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 the things you had to live without

You keep on looking for love, but you're scared as hell

You keep finding reasons not to love yourself

You know the walls won't cave when you ask for help

Everyone's fighting something

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 them 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, they're in white and black
