Cowboy Blues

Cowboy Blues
1. Cowboy Blues



Cowboy Blues
(verse 1)
take me out west
where the foundation is dry
but the brew is wet
lay me down in the green grass
let me plant something wild and free
and watch it grow
with his sturdy frame in my view

why did I fall in love
and then leave that bull-rider?
the realest thing I ever knew
it was all right here
tucked into the quilt of my heart
sleeping quietly in my hometown

(chorus)
tracing the rocky mountains
dancing barefoot in cold rains
forget I left and take hold of me
leave the girl you took as a partner
I'll stick around and won't leave no longer
let me sing you my life's love song, cowboy blues
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
riding shotgun in your old pickup
just as always
the lonely highway feels warm
the sun in the dusty sky
can fry up my insecurities about you
you're my baby

I'll take care of you
you watch out for me
I've got your back 
and picked up your slack

(chorus)
trying to hide from the sun
leaving the shade and going on the run
taking a chance and getting married
your mama probably hates me
my daddy thinks you're sleazy
our twisted lives have become a love song, cowboy blues
(end chorus)

(bridge)
even if a tornado shakes us up
I'll pour happiness in your cup
anyway

(chorus)
tracing the rocky mountains
dancing barefoot in cold rains
forget I left and take hold of me
leave the girl you took as a partner
I'll stick around and won't leave no longer
let me sing you my life's love song, cowboy blues
trying to hide from the sun
leaving the shade and going on the run
taking a chance and getting married
your mama probably hates me
my daddy thinks you're sleazy
our twisted lives have become a love song, cowboy blues
(end chorus)
