My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys Song Lyrics
My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys Lyrics by Ty Myers
(Feat. Ben Haggard)
I grew up dreamin’ of bein’ a cowboy
And lovin’ the cowboy ways
Pursuin’ the life of my high-ridin’ heroes
I burned up my childhood days
I learned all the rules of a modern-day drifter
Don’t you hold on to nothin’ too long
“Just take what you need from the ladies, then leave them”
Were the words of a sad country song
My heroes have always been cowboys
And they still are, it seems
Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of
Themselves and their slow-movin’ dreams
Cowboys are special, their own brand of misery
From bein’ alone too long
You can die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare
Knowin’ well that their best days are gone
Pickin’ up hookers instead of my pen
I let the words of my youth fade away
Old worn-out saddles, old worn-out memories
But no one and no place to stay
My heroes have always been cowboys
And they still are, it seems
Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of
Themselves and their slow-movin’ dreams
