LONE COWBOY
MUSIC by STEVE DAFOE 2005
LYRICS by S. DAFOE\ J. MAYER
CHORUS:
I FEEL LIKE A LONE COWBOY OUT ON THE ROAD
OH, JUST A LONE MUSICIAN RIDING ALONE
RIDING ALONE.......
JUST WANNA GO HOME
TOURING OR RIDING...YOU'RE ALL ALONE
ALL ALONE.....JUST WANNA GO HOME
LIKE A LONE COWBOY RIDING ALONE.....(REPEAT)
VERSE 1:
MET SOME BARSTOOL PROPHETS WHEN I NEEDED A FEW COLD BEERS
SAID THEY WERE PROUD...PROUD OF ALL MY SMALL FEATS
THEY CONTINUED ON BUT I WROTE
A NOTE ON A TAXI RECEPT TO SAY
"DON'T LISTEN TO ANYBODY BUT ME....ANYBODY BUT ME"
I DID HIT THE BIG TIME FOR A NOMINAL FEE
BUT YOU LOSE A FRIEND IN THE END FOR EVERY
DREAM THAT COME'S TRUE.................TO CHORUS
VERSE 3:
I GOT SCARS UPON SCRAPES, I GOT BRUISES ON BREAKS
MASOCHISTICALLY COMMITTED TO SEE HOW MUCH I CAN TAKE
THREE YEARS UNDER WATER AND I AIN'T EVEN GOT THE SHAKES
I'M GOING DEEPER AND DEEPER
AND I FEEL LIKE...........................TO CHORUS
VERSE 4:
I'VE GOT DREAMS TO REMEMBER, I'VE GOT DAYS TO FORGET
I'VE GOT PHONE CALLS IN TO GOD BUT HE AIN'T CALLED BACK YET
I MAKE ALL THE DECISIONS
THE DREAMS LIVED OUT ARE MY PAYBACK BUT I
JUST WANT A FRIEND OR TWO TO COME ON BACK............ TO CHORUS
VERSE 5:
I'VE GOT FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES, I KNOW FOLKS IN LOW PLACES
AND I'VE EVEN GOT OPINIONS ON MY OPINIONS
I THINK LUCIFER'S CALLING ON MY CELL
THE WALLS I BUILD JUST TO KEEP ME OUT OF THIS HELL
NO WONDER I FEEL LIKE ............ TO CHORUS
VERSE 6:
AND THOSE BARSTOOL PROPHETS SAID THAT
SORROW IS ALWAYS LOOKING BACK
AND WORRY IS ALWAYS LOOKING AROUND
BUT AS FOR FAITH...YOU GOTTA LOOK UP
I GUESS I'M DUE FOR A SPIRTUAL CHECKUP
AND I SURE FEEL LIKE ............ TO CHORUS
