Zeds Dead - Cowboy lyrics

rate me

You see I grew up as a wild child, played by my own rules

Stubborn as a motherfucker, I don’t wanna go to school

Math class is boring, recess is old news

I just wanna chill and have fun like them older dudes

And so I did, and I never gave in

With my back to the wind and a goofy old grin

I was out for the sting when I wanted that win

When they told me I’d lose, I just told them I’d win

And I snuck out of class, headed down the road

Ventured on home, call me Indiana Ommz

Said I’d never look back, I’d just set my own path

I don’t need a game plan, I can get my own map

'Til girl meets boy and boy meets girl

Never would have thought that she would change his world

I remember that day, when we met up in the rain

She just looked me in the eyes, and she said one thing

[2x]

Yeah [2x]

Don’t you see what I am? See what I’m doin’?

This is my life, don’t you see what I’ve ruined?

Drowned my gift, dropped my faith

Forgot my dream, I’ve lost my way

And there’s nobody to blame, nobody to go to

I was doin’ fine, why the fuck did I involve you?

Ready as I am I would never get the chance

To show you what I dreamt

‘Cause you’d never understand

I’m a cowboy by night, rider by the day

If I can find a saloon, I can find my way

Earn my living with my outlaw winnings

Y’all could spend it all with me but I just can’t stay

Now everything’s gone, everything’s lost

Promises to God, I’ve paid my cost

Never would’ve thought that she’d ever let us go

But she’s missing in my heart, I can feel it in my soul

I remember that day, when we met up in the rain

She just looked me in the eyes, and she said one thing

Yeah [2x]

What’s wrong? Who cares?

So long, cold stare

I’ve been wrong about everything, you owned me

And if I had another chance to try it all again

Then you know you’d be looking at the old me

So if there’s anything left, anything at all

Let me write that song that’ll put you in my arms

I can see you’re a star, but please don’t shoot

Please, at the least, let me speak my truth

“Too little too late,” she whispered in the wind

I wish you'd never left, this shouldn’t be the end

She always on my mind when I’m thinking in my zone

When there’s nothing left to drink and I’m sitting here alone

The cards are on the table, the odds are looking grim

Indebted to regret, there’s no profit in the win

I told her what she meant, just hope she remembers that

I sent it with a prayer but she never wrote a letter back<br />
