Cowboy Movies

(albüm: Same Ol Same Ol - 2021)

Good ol' boys these days are rare
Covered up by television sets, on air
With some paper to read, something they didn't write
You can't get the same feeling under cameras and lights
You can't talk for me if you ain't from my town
I know every black mark, ol' boy and gal
And that glitter and glam ain't impressing nobody
Like a smalltown boy tryna be somebody

We're sky blue eyes like a cowboy movie
We're John Wayne and trucks, ashtray and a doobie
And the saddle's done turned to dusty bench seats
And the reins are the five-speeds at our feet
And that gallop turned to gallons as the time passed by
That don't mean we ain't around, we're still down to ride
Real country boys got stories and a past to prove it
Like stars in cowboy movies

These woods and a six-gun is how I feel
A .22 Heritage and some rolling hills
But just over that bluff is an enemy of mine
No scars on the hands that are writing them lies
And when the lonesome dove rolls in with a dozen white roses
Brought to life in a town of neons and music
They pull the gun 'cause they know I ain't playing
I came alone, hammer cocked like an old lone ranger

We're sky blue eyes like a cowboy movie
We're John Wayne and trucks, ashtray and a doobie
And the saddle's done turned to dusty bench seats
And the reins are the five-speeds at our feet
And that gallop turned to gallons as the time passed by
That don't mean we ain't around, we're still down to ride
Real country boys got stories and a past to prove it
Like stars in cowboy movies

If Music Row was old saloons
Y'all are drunk, but hell, I guess that I'm drunk, too
But when the Bronco kicks, some old boys run
And some stick it to the man like a cowboy's gun
Like a cowboy's gun, oh

We're sky blue eyes like a cowboy movie
John Wayne and a truck, ashtray and a doobie
And the saddle's done turned to old bench seats
And the reins are the five-speeds at our feet
And that gallop turned to gallons as the time passed by
That don't mean we ain't around and still down to ride
Real country boys got stories and we can prove it
Like stars in cowboy movies
