I Ain’t No Cowboy

[Verse 1]

If I knew that day I met her

One day I'd have to forget her

That didn't stop me from tryna hold her

Like a river holds the rain

She always wanted wide open spaces

And I tried my best to tame her

I would've been better off

Than to have freed a bunch of wild mustangs

[Chorus]

I ain't no cowboy, but I wish I was

We would’ve rode off together in the settin' sun

Instead of watching her ride right out of my life

If I could've roped her heart back in

I could've been what she needed when

She saddled up and she kicked up a cloud of dust

I ain't no cowboy and now I wish I was

[Verse 2]

If I could've been more like John Wayne

Well I could've found a way to make her stay

But she was a Lorie Darlin' lookin' for a Gus McCrae

At the end of the day

[Chorus]

I ain't no cowboy, but I wish I was

We would’ve rode off together in the settin' sun

Instead of watching her ride right out of my life

If I could’ve roped her heart back in

I could've been what she needed when

She saddled up and she kicked up a cloud of dust

I ain't no cowboy and now I wish I was

No I ain't no cowboy, but I wish I was

We would've rode off together in the settin' sun

Instead of watching her ride right out of my life

If I could've roped her heart back in

I could've been what she needed when

She saddled up and she kicked up a cloud of dust

I ain't no cowboy, damn I wish I was

[Outro]

Damn I wish I was

Now I wish I was
