Cowboy Rides
I tell about a boy
A loner on the run
Riding on a dream beyond a star
Brought up on his own
He drank water from a stone
Had a scarred 6 string guitar and a broken heart
When he was just a child his mama she had died
Papa was drunk and never by his side
He rode a million miles across the borderline
And I watched him as he sang my favourite song
He played to his sadness
Afraid of his happiness
When he played a note a tear filled my eye
He sang with emotion and I'll always remember
When the cowboy rides into the sun
He's a cowboy alone without a gun
Just a cowboy alone on the run
Preaching in his songs that we should try to love
Even if it's hard to love something that's so much easier to hate
He met his love in life and took her for a wife
But with his babe in childbirth she died
A loner on the run
Riding on a dream beyond a star
Brought up on his own
He drank water from a stone
Had a scarred 6 string guitar and a broken heart
When he was just a child his mama she had died
Papa was drunk and never by his side
He rode a million miles across the borderline
And I watched him as he sang my favourite song
He played to his sadness
Afraid of his happiness
When he played a note a tear filled my eye
He sang with emotion and I'll always remember
When the cowboy rides into the sun
He's a cowboy alone without a gun
Just a cowboy alone on the run
Preaching in his songs that we should try to love
Even if it's hard to love something that's so much easier to hate
He met his love in life and took her for a wife
But with his babe in childbirth she died
