"All The Cowboys" lyrics

Hey Mama, I'm so glad you called
I just finished a load of wash and
I've been feeling a little lost
Yeah mama, I've been on a couple dates
But my phone still hasn't rang
And I've been racking my brain
Wondering if I came on a little strong
If I'm too short if I'm too tall
Mama don't sugarcoat it
Tell me what's wrong again

Why-y-y do all the cowboys ride away
To fi-i-ind them another heart to break
It's in their nature, I can't change them

Things get good so they ride off
In a cloud of dust as another sunset fades
So, tell me mama why all the cowboys ride away

Hey mama, did you ever have to wonder
If the one you're thinking of is thinking of another
With one boot in and one boot out the door
One day he swears he'll stay
The next he's saddling up his horse

So, why-y-y do all the cowboys ride away
To fi-i-ind them another heart to break
It's in their nature, I can't change them
Things get good so they ride off
In a cloud of dust as another sunset fades
So, tell me mama why all the cowboys ride away

Some of us need their space to roam
Than to have and not to hold
And I keep on letting go hoping one day I'll know

So, why-y-y do all the cowboys ride away
To fi-i-ind them another heart to break
It's in their nature, I can't change them
Things get good so they ride off
In a cloud of dust as another sunset fades
So, tell me mama why all the cowboys ride away
