My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys (1980)
I grew up dreaming of being a cowboy and loving the cowboy ways
Pursuing the life of my high riding heroes I burned up my childhood days
I learned all the rules of a modern day drifter don’t you hold on to nothing too long
Just take what you need from the ladies and leave them with the words of a sad country song
My heroes have always been cowboys
And they still are it seems
Sadly in search of and one-step in back of
Themselves and their slow moving dreams
Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery from being alone too long
You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare knowing well that your best days are gone
Picking up hookers instead of my pen I let the words of my youth fade away
Old worn out saddles and old worm out memories with no one and no place to stay
You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare knowing well that your best days are gone
Picking up hookers instead of my pen I let the words of my youth fade away
Old worn out saddles and old worm out memories with no one and no place to stay
My heroes have always been cowboys
And they still are it seems
Sadly in search of and one-step in back of
Themselves and their slow moving dreams
Sadly in search of and one-step in back of
Themselves and their slow moving dreams
