"Cowboy" lyrics
"Cowboy"
It took New York to make me a cowboy
Now everybody knows
Even if I change my clothes
Familiar, but strange, like an android
From every gapin' hole
A new garden fully grows from me
Wasn't ready, I wasn't ready
I had a foot in my mouth, oh
Saw the cutters through barbed wire
I didn't know I could come out
Undoin' the weavin' of the old roots
My greatest enemy
Took up residence in me
I feel like a criminal with no history
Runnin' from the law
Though I really loved them all
Wasn't ready, I wasn't ready
I had a foot in my mouth, oh
Saw the cutters through barbed wire
I didn't know I could come out
I wasn't ready, I wasn't ready
I had a foot in my mouth, oh no
I know her everything by memory
I'm just a girl from the south
Born from the beige
These feelings made me feel strange
A neon sign
Not the only one of my kind
It took New York to make me a cowboy
Now everybody knows
Even if I change my clothes
Familiar, but strange, like an android
From every gapin' hole
A new garden fully grows
Born from the beige
These feelings made me feel strange
A neon sign
Not the only one of my kind
This is how I felt in the Bible Belt
Wanna be that girl for someone else

I try my best to sing along

Jensen McRae - "Wolves" I was 15, still in the valley
Walking in a parking garage
First time I met a wolf in person
At first I thought it was a dog
I tried to dodge him, he was faster
Than I'd ever had to be
He smiled and...
MUNA - "Kind Of Girl" I'm the kind of girl
Who takes things a little too far
Presses a little too hard
That's why you left a mark and
I'm the kind of girl
Who wants everything she can't get
Leaving alone and yet
