Lyrics
They laughed with me, then laughed at me They said "how true", they said "not you" They thought how wise, then thought goodbye Your hit your stride, then Mr. Hyde They laughed with me then laughed at me (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) They said "how true", they said "not you" (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) They thought how wise, then thought goodbye (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) Your hit your stride, then Mr. Hyde (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) Ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em, get back on again Ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em, get back on again I swam, I sank, top seed, unranked (Get back on again) The pole, the wall, the pride, the fall (Get, get, get, again) A state of grace, slapped in the face (Get back on again) A state of mind, then card declined (Get, get, get, again) From great to good, from good to fair To barely pass, stay after class I'm hot, I'm cold, I'm bought, I'm sold First accolades, then hand grenades They hate your look, they hate your book (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) They hate your guts, you've heard enough (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) It's not your day, it's not your week (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) It's not your month, it's not your year (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) First A-OK, then IOU BMOC, then MIA From DIY to DUI From 411 to 911 Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) First A-OK, then IOU (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) BMOC, then MIA (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) From DIY to DUI (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) From 411 to 911 (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) From soup to nuts, from job to cuts From sure to chance, from can to can'ts From smart to dumb, from bread to crumbs From wowed to bored, "Olé" then gored Ride 'em cowboy, I got thrown again Ride 'em cowboy, get back on again Ride 'em cowboy, I got thrown again Ride 'em cowboy, get back on again Get back on again, get back on again, get back on again From just desserts to just deserts From you're for me to ça suffit From bon vivant to sycophant From open door to merde alors From just desserts to just deserts (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) From you're for me to ça suffit (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) From bon vivant to sycophant (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) From open door to merde alors (Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em) Ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em, get back on again Ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em, get back on again Ride 'em cowboy Ride 'em cowboy Ride 'em cowboy Ride 'em cowboy Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, get back on again Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, get back on again
