Life was simple way back when ....

Cowboys Never Fall In Love
*********************************
I had a hero
When I was a kid
‘Cause I would
Watch those old
TV shows from
Way back when

When life
Was so simple
And the good guy won
But he
Never raised his voice
Never lost his hat
And never
Used his gun

(Chorus)
He could ride
And he could rope
There's not much
He didn’t know
And he
Never lost a fight
He’d always win

He would
Ride in
Just in time
He would save some
Woman’s life
But cowboy’s
Never fall in love
But I did


Some girl
Would be grateful
But it wouldn’t last
Thanks to some awful
Twist of fate
Or she'd have a past

There was a moment
You knew
It would come
Somehow he’d
Lose the girl
Ride off into the sun

(Chorus)
Well he could ride
And he could rope
There was not much
He didn’t know
If he had to fight
Then he’d always win

He'd ride in
Just in time
He would save
Everybody’s life
But cowboys
Never fall in love
Like I did


We all to have grow up
‘Cause that’s how it goes
When we put away
Those childish things
Like cowboy shows

I met a lady
She was so nice
I couldn’t let
Someone like her
Just pass me by

I found my courage
When I saw her smile
One day soon
She'll be my wife
We'll walk down the isle

(Chorus)
But I can’t ride
And I can’t rope
There are
Some things
That I don’t know
And there have been fights
That I couldn’t win

But she rode in
Just in time
I guess you could say
She saved my life
I know cowboys
Never fall in love
But I did

I know cowboys
Never fall in love
But I did

But she rode in
Just in time
I guess you could say
She saved my life
I know cowboys
Never fall in love
But I did

I know cowboys
Never fall in love
But I did
