Lonely Cowboy

Say I can use a better friend than the one I've got, my shadow
Even when the sun goes down, he will leave me by myself
And in the mornin' he returns, but he doesn't ever say much
Say I don't wanna ride alone down this dark and lonesome road

See even cowboys can get lonely from time to time
See even cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Yeah, so I, I know one thing, I've come much to far
Yeah, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go

Share the silence with a fire, roll the rest of my tobacco
Tellin' stories to myself, but I know them all too well (Mm)
Swear the desert at night, it's cold
I just want someone to hold me close
Say I don't wanna die alone
Who's gonna love me when I'm gone?

See even cowboys can get lonely from time to time (Mm-hmm)
Even cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Yes, so I, I know one thing
I've come much too far
Woah, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go

Look into my naked eye, reflected into the horizon
Ooh, yet another day goes by and there's not a soul in sight
As I ride into the dark, as I ride into the sunset
I guess it's time to say goodbye to the rider of the night

See even cowboys can get lonely from time to time
See even cowboys do get lonesome sometimes
Yes but I, I know one thing
I know one thing I've come much too far
Woah, to let you go now, please, don't let me go
Lord, don't let me go

See even cowboys do get lonely
Oh, just like me
Yes, even me
Well, just like me
Even me
