"Cowboy Junkie" lyrics

Pretty face and a lonely smile
I could tell it had been a while
Like a song on a radio dial
We fell in love

She said she liked my Stetson hat
Kissed my cheek and never gave it back
Somehow she made me laugh
I guess that was enough

She'll always be my cowboy junkie
That one woman that'll always love me
She holds me and all my scars
Fall asleep here in the dark

Pull the gate and hold on tight
Underneath the rhinestone lights
She thanks God, I'm still alive
Wipes the tear from her eye
Ooh
Oh-oh!

The highway was my best friend
Felt my tears and knew my sins
She pulled up and I climbed in
And we're still running

Looking back, it's like a dream
The kind of dream that's hard to believe
It's like the Lord looked down on me
And really gave me something

She'll always be my cowboy junkie
That one woman that'll always love me
She holds me and all my scars
Fall asleep here in the dark

Pull the gate and hold on tight
Underneath the rhinestone lights
She thanks God, I'm still alive
Wipes the tear from her eye
Ooh
Oh-oh!

She'll always be my cowboy junkie
That one woman that'll always love me
She holds me and all my scars
Fall asleep here in the dark

Pull the gate and hold on tight
Underneath the rhinestone lights
She thanks God, I'm still alive
Wipes the tear from her eye
Ooh
Oh-oh!

Ooh
Oh-oh!
