Well, he's been known to lose more than he wins.
|
He falls down just to get back up again.
|
The way he smiles: his face is weathered an' leathered an' lined:
|
You can tell he's learned to laugh through a lotta hard times.
|
He gets by without shovin'; a drifter and a dreamer.
|
He gets stoned on a roll your own: what you get is what you see here.
|
|
Once a cowboy, always a cowboy.
|
Between the blue sky an' unbroken ground.
|
He wears his freedom like a crown.
|
Let the whole world around him change,
|
That don't mean a thing:
|
Once a cowboy, always a cowboy.
|
|
She tries to tell him he's runnin' out of time,
|
Oh, but that ain't we you'd see if you were lookin' through his eyes.
|
He's still chasin' sunsets, still tryin' to find,
|
Something better than what he'd left behind.
|
She tries to love him but somehow she understands,
|
That it was over the moment it began.
|
|
Once a cowboy, always a cowboy.
|
Between the blue sky an' unbroken ground.
|
He wears his freedom like a crown.
|
Let the whole world around him change,
|
That don't mean a thing:
|
Once a cowboy, always a cowboy.
|
|
Instrumental Break.
|
|
He's been known to lose more than he wins.
|
He falls down just to get back up again.
|
|
Once a cowboy, always a cowboy.
|
Between the blue sky an' unbroken ground.
|
He wears his freedom like a crown.
|
Let the whole world around him change,
|
That don't mean a thing:
|
Once a cowboy, always a cowboy.
|
yeah,
|
Let the whole world around him change,
|
Oh, yeah.
|
Oh, oh, oh.
