COWBOY HAT (LYRICS)

Yes he wore a cowboy hat
Each bone broken in his back
All the money and all the gold
Couldn't buy my love at eight years old
I'm in love with a girl who's wrong for me
Ask her she will disagree
Her father was a small town man
With small time dreams and small town hands, but

I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when I say I don't know
Gone for good in fact but what does it mean
From year to year they always sold 'em, but

Easy enough to just look at her
Whole world on a silver platter
What's that? Is that for me?
If I would set his conscience free
Won round one but it's not over
He don't care cause he don't know her
Too long, it's not the same
If I could lend a hand to shame, but

I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when I say I don't know
Gone for good in fact but what does it mean
From year to year they always sold 'em, but

You'll always be so much easier to see
Don't hide from me that which I've already seen
You lie to me more than occasionally
Don't lie to me; you lied to me

I'm as high as I'll ever be
I don't mind, stay and see
They've all gone, why don't we?
Lonely as you and me
But I'm as high as I'll ever be
Later on, last to see
The past is gone only for me
But I'm alive

I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when I say I don't know
Gone for good in fact but what does it mean
From year to year they always sold 'em, but
