Rough Ride For A Cowboy

He's a lone star Casanova
Puts the South in South Dakota
He ain't ever met a mustang he ain't broke
Put a 90 on a bucker
He's a one night one and doner
He's a runner but he's running out of rope
He'll lasso 'em in
Then turn on a dime
But them tables are turning tonight

Now he's 'bout to learn what lonely looks like
When I cut him loose but his hands are tied
Nothing breaks his heart like breaking his pride
When he ain't got the reins on goodbye
That's a rough ride for a cowboy
That's a rough ride for a cowboy

In the morning when he wakes up
Yeah he'll finally get a taste of his own medicine
A spoon full of bitter
Hell isn't it ironic
It's freedom that he wanted
He got it but don't like how it got delivered

Now he's 'bout to learn what lonely looks like
When I cut him loose but his hands are tied
Nothing breaks his heart like breaking his pride
When he ain't got the reins on goodbye
That's a rough ride for a cowboy
That's a rough ride for a cowboy

It's his gravel meeting the treads on my tires
The tables are turning tonight

Now he's 'bout to learn what lonely looks like
When I cut him loose but his hands are tied
Nothing breaks his heart like breaking his pride
When he ain't got the reins on goodbye
That's a rough ride for a cowboy
That's a rough ride for a cowboy
That's a rough ride for a cowboy
