Ain't Always The Cowboy

Her hands wrapped up in mine

Tears rollin' out of her eyes

No messin' with a made-up mind

Sun settin' on goodbye

Yeah, it's hard to believe

It wasn't me tryin' to leave this time

It ain't always the cowboy

That ain't got a lot of hang around

Ain't got no settle down in their boots

Gone's just what they do

That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'

Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet

It ain't always the cowboy that rides away

I've never seen over from this side

Never heard lonely get this quiet

Still I can't keep from smilin'

'Cause damn that girl can fly

It ain't always the cowboy

That ain't got a lot of hang around

Ain't got no settle down in their boots

Gone's just what they do

That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'

Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet

It ain't always the cowboy that rides away

A tumbleweed heart, chasin' that wind

Goin' too far, wherever that is

It ain't always the cowboy

That ain't got a lot of hang around

Ain't got no settle down in their boots

Gone's just what they do

That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'

Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet

It ain't always the cowboy that rides away

Rides away

It ain't always the cowboy
