Cowboy in a Song

Sitting down thinking bout you and all those wild times

When we didn't really care, had our shirts in the air in the moonshine

That was two years ago when we didn't really know what life was

Not a care in the world til the cops came busting that night up

The sunrise can quicker than we thought

When we ran through the woods

And we never got caught

Through the pouring down rain and flashing lights

I got a glimpse of the rebel in your eyes

And I still ain't sure how we made it out alive

But that night went quick in the blink of an eye

Just you and me and the stars in the sky

I'd trade it all in to go back too that night

When we laid on that blanket all night long

Then that summer came and went and you were gone

Like a cowboy in a song

Rope swing swinging our beers in a bag, speaker playing loud

There was a pissed off neighbor

When the crowd came through and tore up all his ground

We were soaked from our head down to our toes

Where my shirt is now

I still don't know

Cause through the pouring down rain and flashing lights

I got a glimpse of the rebel in your eyes

and I still ain't sure how we made it out alive

But that night went quick in the blink of an eye

Just you and me and the stars in the sky

I'd trade it all in to go back too that night

When we laid on that blanket all night long

Then that summer came and went and you were gone

Like a cowboy in a song

Now I hope that my kids will feel the same

When they're wild and they're sixteen

Living life without shame

Cause through the pouring down rain and flashing lights

I got a glimpse of the rebel in your eyes

And I still ain't sure how we made it out alive

But that night went quick in the blink of an eye

Just you and me and the stars in the sky

I'd trade it all in to go back too that night

When we laid on that blanket all night long

Then that summer came and went and you were gone
