I Ain't No Cowboy

LETRA

I Ain't No Cowboy

Well, I knew the day I met her
One day I'd have to forget her
But that didn't stop me from tryin' to hold her
Like the river holds the rain
She always wanted wide open spaces
And I tried my best to tame her
But I would have been better off breakin'
A herd of wild mustangs

I ain't no cowboy, but I wish I was
We'd have rode off together in the settin' sun
Instead of watchin' her ride right out of my life
If I could have roped her heart back in
I could have been what she needed when
She saddled up, and she kicked up a cloud of dust
I ain't no cowboy, but now I wish I was

If I could have been more like John Wayne
I could have found a way to make her stay
But she was a Lorie Darlin' lookin' for her Gus McCrae
And at the end of the day

I ain't no cowboy, but I wish I was
We'd have rode off together in the settin' sun
Instead of watchin' her ride right out of my life
If I could have roped her heart back in
I could have been what she needed when
She saddled up, and she kicked up a cloud of dust
I ain't no cowboy. but, damn, I wish I was

Naw, I ain't no cowboy, but I wish I was
We'd have rode off together in the settin' sun
Instead of watchin' her ride right out of my life
If I could have roped her heart back in
I could have been what she needed when
She saddled up, and she kicked up a cloud of dust
I ain't no cowboy, but now I wish I was
