Met a rodeo cowboy in Billings. Killing time, trading stories and beer. And asked him how he made a living. Riding broncs and bull doggin' steers. . Well, he smiled as he tipped his hat slowly.
Well a man can't spend his life in reflection,. Just thinkin' about the way things used to be.. So I'm gonna take myself a new direction,. And make myself some brand new memories..
This country's seen some hard times. Lord knows she's deep in debt. She's comin' through another depression. And for some it ain't over yet. . We've all been divided.
I used to want to be a cowboy. Spent my childhood dreamin' that. Wearing spurs and boots and six guns. And a big ten-gallon hat. . Chasin' outlaws, savin' ladies.
There ought to be a town somewhere, named for how I feel. Yeah I could be the mayor down there and say welcome to Sorryville. It wouldn't be on a map no where, you might say that it dont exist.
She opened up the letter from Nashville Tennessee. He said hon they like my music the songs I wrote for you and me. The boys and me just cut a record and it could hit the charts before too long.
(Gordon Kennedy/Wayne Kirkpatrick/Tommy Simms). . It don't matter to the sun. If you go or if you stay. I know the sun is gonna rise. Shine down on another day.
Guess who's back in town. Stompin' around in my old stompin' ground. Too much time away, I'm back to stay. But I ain't settlin' down. . Tonight we'll burn it down.
Yeah, sometimes you make me so crazy I wanna turn and go. Then you drive me wild and it makes me want to stay. Yeah, sometimes it feels like I'm walking down a rocky road.
How do I love you, let me count the ways, I could go on for days. You keep on giving me a reason to stay lost in you. You fill me up with passion and still I never lose the hunger.
In a crowd, in the dark. I would walk straight to your heart without any hesitation. Every turn, every town every highway I go down baby. You're me destination.
If I told you I was wrong. And wanted you to come back home, I'd be lying. And if I said that we could work it out. And you shouldn't have any doubts, I'd be lying.
C'mon baby, won't you take my hand?. I wanna walk with you a while. And tell you what's been on my mind. I know this life can get so crazy sometimes. And we forget about the most important things.
She's got a way of making me feel strong. A style and grace that's all her own. And she's got a way of makin' me feel like a man. Every time that she takes my hand.
I worked all week to make me some money. Bring it back to Mama, best give me some honey yeah. Cashed my check, got a pocket of dollar. Loosenin' the buttons on my blue collar yeah.
I know you said when I left I'd regret every word, every breath. Every step, every minute without you but go do what you have to. I know I said you were wrong I'd move on, it was only a matter of time.
Lately I've been runnin'. Into our old friends. And somewhere in the small talk. Someone always asks where you've been. . So I tell them what you told me.
I can only love you so much. but you use it, if you lose it. would you ever feel ashamed?. . And I will only tell you one more time. then you know that I'm never gonna tell you again..
It's too late, you say you want me, but it's too late. Once my love for you was so great. But it's too late to love me now. It's too late to love me now.
(with Johnny Rodriguez). . J: You knew I'd come around again, baby. I knew you'd let me in again, baby. Neither one of us is strong enough to tell the other one goodbye.
