Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts |
|
Can make you feel nothing at all |
|
They'll never remember and they'll never mind |
|
If you're counting the cracks in the wall |
|
They're quick and they're greedy |
|
They never feel guilty |
|
They don't know the meaning of hurt |
|
The boots just go back on |
|
The socks that had stayed on |
|
The next time they see you |
|
They treat you like dirt |
|
The next time they treat you like dirt |
|
Now don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim |
|
I know lots of those and you're not one of them |
|
There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in |
|
And you won't come the cowboy with me |
|
Don't be too rough on my cold, cold heart |
|
It's all i've got left to me now |
|
I fell out of favour with heaven somewhere |
|
And i'm here for the hell of it now |
|
Some girls play cowboys |
|
And some boys play harder to get |
|
But they're got just the same |
|
They smile and say cheese |
|
They're so eager to please |
|
But they'll never remember your name |
|
The names and the places all change |
|
But don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim |
|
I know lots of those and you're not one of them |
|
There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in |
|
And you won't come the cowboy with me |
|
Did somebody tell you i'm lonely as hell? |
|
I didn't expect you to know me so well |
|
If i learned a lesson it's how to bounce back again |
|
Sometimes i bounce off the wall |
|
And sometimes my head hits the floor |
|
So don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim |
|
I know lots of those and you're not one of them |
|
There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in |
|
And you won't come the cowboy, oh |
|
Don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim |
|
I know lots of those and you're not one of them |
|
There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in |
|
And you won't come the cowboy with me |
