Once A Cowboy

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 And 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 Well, 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 what 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 But that don't mean a thing Once a cowboy, always a cowboy 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
