Jelly Roll, Struggle Jennings - Cowboys lyrics
[Jelly Roll, Struggle Jennings - Cowboys lyrics]
Mama's don't let your babies grow
Up to be cowboys (cowboys)
Don't let them pick guitars
And drive old trucks
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
Mama's don't let your babies grow
Up to be cowboys (cowboys)
'Cause they'll never be at home
And they're always feel alone
Even if they're with somebody they love
Mama raised a dreamer, southside leanin'
Antioch's codeine fiend
Rose like the phoenix
Whippin' way in then winds up
I ended up in hand cuffs
Was no comedian when the judge
Told me to stand up man in the mirror
Clearly different appearance
Experience is make it where
I feel sentencin' hearin's
But I just stay faithful
Real cowboys never make it a shame
We see what the game did to Troy Aikman
But I just kept prayin'
'cause that's what the good book said
I followed in the footsteps of
A man that booked beds
My daughter and my son I pray they
Can be all they can be
As long as they chose not to
Be a cowboy like me
Mama raised a rambler
All on the line gambler
Slick country grammar, cocked back hammer
100 pounds in the camper
Few years in the slammer
Air my dirty laundry share my life panorama
Life of a cowboy backdrop bandana
Panda, panda
I picked the load up from Atlanta
Landin' from Havana from the hands of Jorge
Foreplay for court dates what
More can they say, uh
I'm the real story, the one they try and tell
Quarter in the wishin' well
Fishin' for the fish scale
Residue on this scale, victory in this tale
I throw my boat off in the
Water watch the shit sail
Get mail spend it all runnin' from the law
Feel along with my locals 'cause
My back against the wall
Times up blue lights and a loud noise
Tellin' my baby mama don't let the
Babies grow up to be cowboys
Mama's don't let your babies grow
Up to be cowboys (cowboys)
Don't let them pick guitars
And drive old trucks
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
Mama's don't let you babies grow
Up to be cowboys (cowboys)
'Cause they'll never be at home
And they're always feel alone
Even if they're with somebody they love
Up to be cowboys (cowboys)
Don't let them pick guitars
And drive old trucks
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
Mama's don't let your babies grow
Up to be cowboys (cowboys)
'Cause they'll never be at home
And they're always feel alone
Even if they're with somebody they love
Mama raised a dreamer, southside leanin'
Antioch's codeine fiend
Rose like the phoenix
Whippin' way in then winds up
I ended up in hand cuffs
Was no comedian when the judge
Told me to stand up man in the mirror
Clearly different appearance
Experience is make it where
I feel sentencin' hearin's
But I just stay faithful
Real cowboys never make it a shame
We see what the game did to Troy Aikman
But I just kept prayin'
'cause that's what the good book said
I followed in the footsteps of

Can be all they can be
As long as they chose not to
