lyrics

Cowboy

once i was a cowboy
rode out on the range
i never sensed it coming
the wrecking ball of change

once i was a cowboy
camped beneath the stars
now i wander like a ghost
between the speeding cars

i preserve your picture
locked in my valise
stumbling through the tenements
crawling on my knees

once i was a cowboy
the water cold and clear
now i grasp at memories
of what i held so dear

once i was a cowboy
a handshake closed the deal
a thousand miles of open land
the sense of peace i’d feel

i preserve your picture
locked in my valise
stumbling through the tenements
crawling on my knees

once i was a cowboy
but that was long ago
i still dream of endless plains
us galloping so slow

i preserve your picture
locked in my valise
stumbling through the tenements
crawling on my knees

once i was a cowboy
