Listening to Cowboys (3:32)


Get the Flash Player to see this player.


Intro

I've been listening to cowboys
As they sing all those sad songs
Seems they don't know what went wrong
And it prays on their minds
I've been watching those cowgirls
Seeing how it all unfurls
As they live in their own worlds
With their bottles of wine

Out on the prairie night and day
Droving cattle so many miles away
Reminiscing round camp fires
Rugged journeys make them feel so tired
As they come on the road side
Spending money they can't hide
Loaded carbines and whisky jars
Loose women and bars

Break then Repeat Chorus

Out there mending fences
Open plains filling senses
Whilst their women are fenced-in
Working hard all the time
You can see consequences
Don't need lectures presented
No coincidence then
That there's trouble down the line

Repeat Chorus then Outro
