(Kirsty MacColl)
|
|
Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts
|
They make you feel nothing at all
|
They'll never remember and they'll never mind
|
If you're counting the cracks in the wall
|
They're quick and they're greedy
|
They never feel guilty
|
They don't know the meaning of hurt
|
The boots just go back on the socks that stayed on
|
The next time they see you they treat you like dirt
|
The next time they treat you like dirt
|
|
Chorus
|
Now don't come the cowboy with me, Sonny Jim
|
I know lots of those and you're not one of them
|
There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in and
|
You won't come the cowboy with me
|
|
Don't be too rough on my cold, cold heart
|
It's all I've got left to me now
|
I fell out of favour with heaven somewhere
|
And I'm here for the hell of it now
|
Some girls play cowboys and some boys play harder to get
|
But they're got just the same
|
They smile and say "cheese", they're so eager to please
|
But they'll never remember your name
|
The names and the places all change
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Did somebody tell you I'm lonely as hell?
|
I didn't expect you to know me so well
|
If I learned a lesson, it's how to bounce back again
|
Sometimes I bounce off the wall
|
And sometimes my head hits the floor
|
|
Chorus (Twice)
