American Aquarium - Should've Been a Cowboy lyrics

I bet you never heard ole Marshal Dillon say
"Miss Kitty
Have you ever thought of running away
Settling down, would you marry me
If I asked you twice and begged you pretty please,?"
She'd have said yes in a New York minute
They never tied the knot his
Heart wasn't in it
He just stole a kiss as he rode away
He never hung his hat up at Kitty's place

I should've been a cowboy
I should've learned to rope and ride
Wеarin' my six-shooter
Ridin' my pony on a cattle drive
Stеalin' the young girls' hearts
Just like Gene and Roy
Singin' those campfire songs
Oh, I should've been a cowboy

I mighta had a sidekick with a funny name
Runnin' wild through the hills
Chasing Jesse James
Endin' up on the brink of danger
Ridin' shotgun for the Texas Rangers
Go west young man haven't you been told
California's full of whiskey, women and gold
Sleepin' out all night beneath
The desert stars with a dream in my eye
And a prayer in my heart

Should've been a cowboy
I should've learned to rope and ride
Wearin' my six-shooter
Ridin' my pony on a cattle drive
Stealin' the young girls' hearts
Just like Gene and Roy
Singin' those campfire songs
Oh, I should've been a cowboy

I should've been a cowboy
I should've learned to rope and ride
I'd be wearin' my six-shooter ridin' my
Pony on a cattle drive
Stealin' the young girls' hearts
Just like Gene and Roy
Singin' those campfire songs
Oh, I should have been a cowboy
Should've been a cowboy
Should've been a cowboy
