"Cowboy Rides Away" lyrics

As the sun showed its face early Sunday morning
The stations full of strangers just comin and going
Everything he owned in a bag over his shoulder
Left too much behind in Tennessee
Headed out to boulder

For them Colorado mountains and a place to start a new life
Where he didn't know a soul and had never told a lie
He left her back at home so she wouldn't cry today
It's hurt her more if he stayed so the cowboy rides away

Ride away
Ride away
Go on cowboy ride away
Ride away
Ride away
Go on cowboy don't hurt her ride away

As the Greyhound followed white lines
He looked up to the sky
The clouds took shape
And he saw her pretty face
Thunder and lightning rolled in
And he knew storms were coming but there's always sunshine after a rainy day
He knew that he could go back and fix the things he'd broken
But he'll break her heart if he stayed so
The cowboy rides away

Ride away
Ride away
Go on cowboy ride away
Ride away
Ride away
Go on cowboy don't hurt her ride away

He decided to ride back
Pulls up to the house
She steps off of their front porch
And these words come out her mouth

Ride away
