LOOKING FOR COWBOYS
Well I never wanted to change the world; I just wanted to see
All the things that I could do and just what I could be
I didn't want it easy, I didn't want it for free
But I thought if I might try to do things right there might be something for me
I'm looking for cowboys but nobody's home
In a world gone crazy - am I riding alone?
Searching for heroes on a Sunday afternoon
I'm looking for cowboys but they left too soon
They said we could have all the things we should if we fought for the USA
So we took our guns and we got it done and figured it would come our way
Now I'm watching the man on the TV standing on the ground I stood
Cashing it in and playing to win the way that I never could
I'm looking for cowboys but nobody's home
In a world gone crazy - am I riding alone?
Searching for heroes on a Sunday afternoon
I'm looking for cowboys but they left too soon
I've seen Roy and trigger and Gene and the Sons Of The Pioneers
From the silver screen to the big machine; we're really piling up the years
Now I'm looking back on the times gone by and I'm sitting here watching TV
But this screen is so much smaller and so is everything I see
I'm looking for cowboys but I'm riding alone
In a world gone crazy that's cold as a stone
Searching for something I can hold onto
I'm looking for cowboys, but they left too soon
