When a Cowboy Cries
Lyrics
Some men shoot whiskey
Some men drink wine
To drown out a memory
That they can't outride
When a cowboy cries
Out on the range
Such a lone spot to be
It's breakdowns in ghost towns
With old tumbleweeds
When a cowboy cries
When a cowboy cries
The skies open up
And the tears fall like rain
He's gone with the wind
When it whispers her name
He grabs his pride
Pulls his hat down to hide
'Cause it ain't just the dust in his eyes
When a cowboy cries
It's been a long, hard, cold winter
Sleeping by the fire
Dreams burn like embers
In the middle of the night
When a cowboy cries
When a cowboy cries
The skies open up
And the tears fall like rain
He's gone with the wind
When it whispers her name
He grabs his pride
Pulls his hat down to hide
'Cause it ain't just the dust in his eyes
When a cowboy cries
When he falls down, he gets right back up
But you know that he's had enough
When a cowboy cries
When a cowboy cries
The skies open up
And the tears fall like rain
He's gone with the wind
When it whispers her name
He grabs his pride
Pulls his hat down to hide
'Cause it ain't just the dust in his eyes
When a cowboy cries
When a cowboy cries
