If I Was a Cowboy

[Verse 1]

If highways were dirt roads, streetlights were stars

Mustangs were horses, I'd walk outta this bar

A cigarette and a Stetson and whiskey in my veins

I'd climb back in the saddle and grab ahold of the reins

[Chorus]

If I was a cowboy, I wouldn't miss you at all

A shot of Jack and Marlboro, I'd move on, girl, feelin' ten feet tall

I'd ride off into the sunset out west

Never let your memory ever tie me down

If I was a cowboy, I'd be over you by now

[Verse 2]

You'd be ashes in a campfire, water under a bridge

A trail of dust behind me, you'd never find me again

[Chorus]

If I was a cowboy, I wouldn't miss you at all

A shot of Jack and Marlboro, I'd move on, girl, feelin' ten feet tall

I'd ride off into the sunset out west

Never let your memory ever tie me down

If I was a cowboy, I'd be over you by now

[Bridge]

Let my boots down in a new town

Find a nail to hang my hat

And you wouldn't kill me, and I wouldn't still be

Wishin' you'd come back

[Chorus]

If I was a cowboy, I wouldn't miss you at all

A shot of Jack and Marlboro, I'd move on, girl, feelin' ten feet tall

I'd ride off into the sunset out west

Never let your memory ever tie me down

If I was a cowboy, I'd be over you by now
