Cowboy Lyrics

You see I grew as a wild child, played by my own rules
Stubborn as a maw'f**** , I don't wanna go to school
Math class is boring, recess is old news
I just wanna chill and have fun, like them older dudes
And so I did, and I never gave in
With my back to the wind, and the roof of your grin (?)
I was out for the sting (?), where I wanted I went
When they told me I'd lose, I just told 'em I'd win
And I snuck outta class, headed down the road
Ventured on home, called me Indiana Ommz
Said I'd never look back, I just set my own path
I don't need a game plan, I could get my own map
Til girl meets boy, and boy meets girl
Never would thought that she would change his world
I remember that day when we met up in the rain
She just looked me in the eyes, and she said one thing
.
Show me love
You've got your hand on the b***on now
Showing love
You've got your hand on the b***on now
.
Don't you see what I am, see what I'm doing
This is my life, don't you see I've ruined
Drown my gift, drown my faith
Forgot my dream, I have lost my way
And there's nobody to blame, nobody to call to
I was doing fine, why the f*** did I involve you
Ready as I am, I would never get the chance
To show you what I dreamt, cuz you'd never understand
I'm a cowboy by night, writer by the day
If I could find a saloon, I could find my way
Earn my living, with my outlaw winnings
Ya'll could spend it all with me, but I just can't stay
Now everything's gone, everything's lost
Promises to God, I have paid my cost
Never would have thought that you'd ever let us go
But she missing in my heart, I could feel it in my soul
.
What's wrong, who cares
So long, who's there
I've been wrong about everything you owe me
And if I had another chance, just to try it all again
Then you know you'd be looking at the old me
So if there's anything left, anything at all
Let me write that song that'll put you in my arms
I can see you're a star, please don't shoot
Please, at the least, let me speak my truth
"little too late", she whispered in the wind
"wish you'd never left, this shouldn't be the end"
She always on my mind, when I'm thinking in my zone
When there's nothing left to drink, and I'm sitting here alone
The cards are on the table, the odds are looking grim
Indebted to regret, there's no profit in a win
I told her what she meant, I hope she remembers that
I send it with a prayer, but she never wrote a letter back
