Cowboy Casanova
Daddy was a preacher at a little ol' church in town
So all I ever knew were the pews and lettin' him down
He used to always say "Son, don't forget why you were born"
But all I ever was, was the one they were prayin' for
So late one night in the summer bout mid July
The Preacher man said he could see the Devil in my eyes
Then all of a sudden there was angry folks all around
Yeah that's the night my daddy ran me out of town
Yeah that's the night I vowed to never turn around
Cause I'm a lone wolf, a traveler
I need love but abuse your power
And I'll be long gone by mornin' come
I'm a Cowboy Casanova, never one nor without the other
And I'll be damned if I ever change
No I'm proud that I was born this way
(No I'm proud that I was born this way)
I met the law in the valleys of the borders of the Caronlines
Now he was sharp, yet cunnin' I could see the Devil in his eyes
And right when I saw him Hell I knew what it would be
Well it was either gonna be the end of him or me
Then right as the dust got to settle and the clock rang dawn
All the streets were empty, all the mommas and their babies went home
Cause right when they saw us Hell they knew what it would be
Well it was either gonna be the end of him or me
Cause I'm a lone wolf, a traveler
I need love but abuse your power
And I'll be long gone by mornin' come
I'm a Cowboy Casanova, never one nor without the other
And I'll be damned if I ever change
No I'm proud that I was born this way
(No I'm proud that I was born this way)
Now I done came from nothing nowhere fast and I'm bound to reach the top
Cause I'm sellin quicker than the crooked farmer with the river water crop
And if they think they're gonna stop me they might as well just lock me up
Cause if not, I'm gon' come in swift and take everything and then some
Cause I'm a lone wolf, a traveler
I need love but abuse your power
And I'll be long gone by mornin' come
I'm a Cowboy Casanova, never one nor without the other
And I'll be damned if I ever change
No I'm proud that I was born this way
(No I'm proud that I was born this way)
So all I ever knew were the pews and lettin' him down
