[00:00.171]My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys -Waylon Jennings
[00:07.320]I grew up a dreaming of being a cowboy
[00:13.949]Loving the cowboy ways
[00:20.139]Pursuing the life of my high riding heroes
[00:26.419]I burned up my childhood days
[00:32.619]I learned all the rules of the modern day drifter
[00:38.669]Don't you hold on to nothing too long
[00:45.299]Just take what you need from the ladies then leave them
[00:51.759]With the words of a sad country song
[00:57.927]My heroes have always been cowboys
[01:05.356]And they still are it seems
[01:10.406]Sadly in search of but one step in back of
[01:16.706]Themselves and their slow moving dreams
[01:26.545]Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery
[01:32.654]From being alone too long
[01:38.594]You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare
[01:45.203]Knowing well your best days are gone
[01:52.151]Picking up hookers instead of my pen
[01:57.739]I let the words of my years fade away
[02:04.748]Old worn out saddles an 'old worn out memories
[02:11.117]No one and no place to stay
[02:17.106]My heroes have always been cowboys
[02:24.726]And they still are it seems
[02:29.806]Sadly in search of but one step in back of
[02:36.286]Themselves and their slow moving dreams
