Tommy Cash - My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys
00
Copied!
{Verse 1}
I grew up dreaming of being a cowboy
And loving 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 then leave them
With the words of a sad country song
{Chorus}
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
{Verse 2}
Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery
From being home too long
To die like a colt 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 worn-out memories
With no one and no place to stay
{Chorus}
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
