Sammy Arriaga - Cowboy Cries lyrics

You jump in your truck
Then you head West
Fade away into that sunset
'Cause this is how a cowboy cries
Cowboy cries
On that lawn, strum that guitar
Write a song about your broken heart
'Cause this is how a cowboy cries
Cowboy cries

You act all tough
Chin held high
Tellin' everyone that you're fine
When you know that that's a lie
This is how a cowboy cries
You know that girl's goodbye sure took it's toll
But you won't let anybody know
You keep that all locked inside
You never shed a tear from your eye
'Cause this is how a cowboy cries

You hit that bar and you take one shot
Once it starts, boy it won't stop
'Cause this is how a cowboy cries
Cowboy cries
You pick up a fight, and throw no punch
You've already been beat up
This is how a cowboy cries
Cowboy cries

You act all tough
Chin held high
Tellin' everyone that you're fine
When you know that that's a lie
This is how a cowboy cries
You know that girl's goodbye sure took it's toll
But you won't let anybody know
You keep that all locked inside
You never shed a tear from your eye
'Cause this is how a cowboy cries

Even though there's a pain inside your chest
You could only wish that girl the best
And keep her in your prayers tonight

You act all tough
Chin held high
Tellin' everyone that you're fine
When you know that that's a lie
This is how a cowboy cries
You know that girl's goodbye sure took it's toll
But you won't let anybody know
You keep that all locked inside
You never shed a tear from your eye
'Cause this is how a cowboy cries
