Lyrics
I'm Just a Rundown Cowboy
A long Shadow in a sunset town boys
Feeling lower than the dirt
on the over-sized shoes of
a rodeo clown boys
Just a rundown cowboy
ain't got no horse oh
to get around boys
ain't got no gun...
I'm just a rundown cowboy
(yodels)
I was the best
I won the west
but that was then
there's nothing left
but memories
I've been replaced
by men from space
Super HEros
3D games
technology
And I'm a rundown COwboy
I'll take the bus
if you run me out of town boys
I was once so much more
Something children did adore
but now I'm just
a
rundown cowboy
(yodels)
a rundown cowboy
etc. el fin.
