lyrics

I am a cowboy riding all day long
Through prairies and canyons where I belong
But when I’m coming home to my cabin
I’m sitting on my bed and weep

I am a big guy and I carry a gun
I cast a big shadow - blocking out the sun
But when I’m home alone in my cabin
I’m sitting on my bed and weep

What all I ever do - the girls, they don’t really like me
They only see this dangerous and really big guy
This motherfuckin badass who shoots squirrels in his backyard
But all I want is kisses and some home made apple pie…

I am so badass and I’m six feet tall
I am the most frightening of them all
But when I’m home alone in my cabin
I’m sitting on my bed and weep

I go to dances and I go to fairs
I want romances and I want heirs
But I always come alone to my cabin
And sit down on my bed and weep

What all I ever do - the girls, they don’t really like me
They only see this dangerous and really big guy
This motherfuckin badass who shoots squirrels in his backyard
But all I want is kisses and some home made apple pie…

You think I’m happy but I am not
My life is crappy and I’m smoking pot
Huhuhuh Huhuhuh
Sometimes I pay for sex on the phone
´Cause I am feeling this goddamn alone
I am nothing but an old getting cowboy
Huhuhuh
I am nothing but an old getting cowboy
Huhuhuh
(He is nothing but an old getting cowboy)
Huhuhuh

And I’m sitting on my bed and weep…
