Lyrics
Cowboy Blues
The bartender knows what I'm going through
I'm just like all the rest
He'll bring me a komakazi
and a shot of Mexico's best
He'll point to the little red head
'cause she can help me through
one more cold and lonely night
a cure for the cowboy blues
Those country bars and steel guitars
have helped me get through
one more cold and lonely night
ever since I lost you
a cold beer keeps me company
and with the help from a bottle of booze
It's a honky tonk remedy
A cure for the cowboy blues
I'll move out to the dance floor
when the band starts to play
They'll sing all those sad songs
I know the words they say
They'll bring back all the memories
I have of me and you
But I know the remedy
a cure for the cowboy blues
Those country bars and steel guitars
have helped me get through
one more cold and lonely night
ever since I lost you
A cold beer keeps me company
and with the help from a bottle of booze
It's a honky tonk remedy
a cure for the cowboy blues
