"An Honest Man" lyrics

"An Honest Man"

I've cursed some early Sunday mornings
I've stayed out late, drank too much wine
And I've gone off without a warning
And let you down from time to time
But I've always kept my promise
This wedding ring on my left hand

Let them cowboys be the heroes
I'll just be an honest man

Well, I'm a little rough around the edges
And sometimes I lose my tone
Gonna face some real tough stretches
And we'll just take 'em as they come
And girl, I know how much you trust me
And know I wear it like a brand

Let them cowboys be the heroes
I'll just be an honest man

Just take me as I am
I'll do the best I can
And know the truth is hard to find
Bet on it every single time
Well, come and put your arms around me
And put your heart here in my hands

Let them cowboys be the heroes
I'll just be an honest man
Let them cowboys be the heroes
I'll just be an honest man
