My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

In the style of

Willie Nelson

Lyrics

i grew up a-dreamin'
of bein' a cowboy
and lovin'
the cowboy ways

pursuin' the life
of my high-ridin'
heroes
i burned up
my childhood days

i learned
all the rules
of a modern-day
drifter
don't you hold on
to nothin'
too long

just take
what you need
from the ladies
then leave them
with the words
of a sad country song

my heroes have always
been cowboys
and they still are
it seems

sadly in search of
and one step
in back of themselves
and their
slow-movin' dreams

cowboys are special
with their own brand
of misery
from bein' alone
too long

you could die
from the cold
in the arms of
a nightmare
knowin' well
that your best days
are gone

pickin' up hookers
instead of my pen
i let the words of
my youth fade away

old worn-out saddles
and old worn-out
memories
with no one
and no place to stay

my heroes have always
been cowboys
and they still are
it seems

sadly in search of
and one step
in back of themselves
and their
slow-movin' dreams

sadly in search of
and one step
in back of themselves
and their
slow-movin' dreams
