Cowboy

You see, I grew up as a wild child, played by my own rules

Stubborn as a motherfucker, I don't wanna go to school

Man, class is boring, recess is old news

I just wanna chill and have fun like them older dudes

And so I did, and I never gave in

With my back to the wind, in the roof of your grin

I was out for the sting, where I wanted, I went

When they told me I'd lose, I just told them I'd win

And I snuck out of class, headed down the road

Ventured on home, call me Indiana Omes

Said I'd never look back, gotta set my own path

I don't need a game plan, I can get my own map too

Girl meets boy, and boy meets girl

Never would've thought that she would change his world

I remember that day, when we met up in a range

You just looked me in the eye and you said one thing

"Show me love

Who's got your hand on a button now?

Show enough

You've got your hand on a button now"

Don't you see what I am? See what I'm doin'?

This is my life, don't you see what I've ruined

Drown my gift, try my faith

Forgot my dream, I've lost my way

And there's nobody to blame, nobody to call to

I was doin' fine, why the fuck did I involve you?

Ready as I am, I would never get the chance

To show you what I dreamt, 'cause you'd never understand

I'm a cowboy by night, rider by the day

If i could find a saloon, I could find my way

Earn my livin' with my outlaw winnings

I could spend it all with me, but I just can't stay now

Everything's gone, everything's lost

Promisin' to God, I've paid my cost

Never would've thought that she'd ever let us go

But she missin' in my heart, I can feel it in my soul

Show me love

Who's got your hand on a button now?

Show enough

You've got your hand on a button now

What's wrong, who cares?

It's all wrong, cool sin

I've been wrong about everything you owe me

And if I had another chance, just to try it all again

Then you know you'd be lookin' at the old me

So, if there's anything left, anything at all

Let me write that song that'd put you in my arms

I can see you a star, please don't shoot

Please, at the least, let me speak my truth

It's a little too late, she whispered in the wind

Wish you never left, it shouldn't be the end

She always on my mind when I'm thinkin' in my zone

When there's nothing left to drink, and I'm sittin' here alone

The cards are on the table, the odds are looking grim

Indebted to regret, there's no profit in the wind

I told her what she meant, just hope she remembers that

I sent her with a prayer, but she never wrote a letter back
