Cowboy (Never) Rides Alone


Verse 1:

I met her in a bar in San Antone.

She wore a dress so tight it looked like it was painted on.

With red lipstick and cowgirl boots she was ready to have some fun.

When she should have just left well enough alone.

Lord, if she knew half the times I?d cut and run.

If she could see mistakes I?ve made, the damage done.

She?d leave this bar and walk away and never (more) think twice.

And let this cowboy ride alone into the night.


Chorus:


There?s a reason this cowboy rides alone.

He?s way too wild. He?s always at the rodeo.

He?ll just rope your heart.

Tie you down

Leave you standin? in the dust alone.

There?s a reason this cowboy rides alone.


Verse 2:

Well, She looked up from her glass and gave a smile.

She said ?I can tell it?s been awhile.?

?You?re hearts been broke, you?ve made mistakes, but I?ll prove just what I say

It?s not good for a cowboy to live this way.?

So she sat down in a chair real close to mine.

She looked into my eyes and sipped some wine.

She made me wanna change my ways

Turn my wrongs into right.

So I rode away with her into the night.


CHORUS 2:

Now She?s the reason this cowboy never rides alone.

He?s not that wild. He always at home, ya know.

She roped his heart. She Tied him down. She kept him as her own.

Now, She?s the reason this cowboy never rides alone.
