(kirsty maccoll)<br><br>Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts<br>Can make you feel nothing at all<br>They'll never remember and they'll never mind<br>If you're counting the cracks in the wall<br>They're quick and they're greedy<br>They never feel guilty<br>They don't know the meaning of hurt<br>The boots just go back on<br>The socks that had stayed on<br>The next time they see you<br>They treat you like dirt<br>The next time they treat you like dirt<br><br>Now don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim<br>I know lots of those and you're not one of them<br>There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in<br>And you won't come the cowboy with me<br><br>Don't be too rough on my cold, cold heart<br>It's all I've got left to me now<br>I fell out of favour with heaven somewhere<br>And I'm here for the hell of it now<br>Some girls play cowboys<br>And some boys play harder to get<br>But they're got just the same<br>They smile and say cheese<br>They're so eager to please<br>But they'll never remember your name<br>The names and the places all change<br><br>But don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim<br>I know lots of those and you're not one of them<br>There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in<br>And you won't come the cowboy with me<br><br>Did somebody tell you I'm lonely as hell? <br>I didn't expect you to know me so well<br>If I learned a lesson it's how to bounce back again<br>Sometimes I bounce off the wall<br>And sometimes my head hits the floor<br><br>So don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim<br>I know lots of those and you're not one of them<br>There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in<br>And you won't come the cowboy, oh<br>Don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim<br>I know lots of those and you're not one of them<br>There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in<br>And you won't come the cowboy with me
