Lyrics
Late at night, sitting around the campfire
Another night sleeping on the ground
Cookie?s meal is all but forgotten
in a bottle passed around
All in a day
You chose this life, they say
Did they every really understand the cowboy way
Ever seen the sky on fire,
burn through a summer storm
Ever spent a night like this, trying to stay warm
And you find you?re
Staring deep, into the eyes of a Cowboy
A boy who?ll ride the trail through to the end
It won?t take a lonely life to feel the pain he?s in
A cowboy can be much more than a friend
Bobby?s got a wife down in Tulsa
Georgie?s got a girl in every town
Little Jimmy acts like he don?t every want to have a girl around
Some boys that way
They live a lonely day
Locked up inside the words they couldn?t say
An unguarded moment and
the pain shows in his eyes
Dead-ended fantasies, and living lies
And you find you?re
Staring deep, into the eyes of a Cowboy
A boy who?ll ride the trail through to the end
It won?t take a lonely life to feel the pain he?s in
A cowboy can be much more than a friend
