Closest To A Cowboy

I drive around this town in a Mustang with the top down

Six running horses under my hood, well that’s good enough for me

I don’t need the real thing

It’s just another thing for me to try and tame

Don’t know if I could; It might just break me

I thought that for a little while

Every sunset     I’d be running off with him

Snap buttons on a denim shirt, blue jeans and a little dirt

That’s the closest you’ll see me

Feet hanging out a pick-up truck, crazy and a little rough

Running free

That’s the closest to a cowboy       you’ll see me

Before I met him, I was so safe and grounded

Before he taught me to lie and c      rawl out the window

I learned the dirt roads and I got my heart broken

‘Cause that cowboy taught me how to cry a      nd how to let go

I thought that for a little while

Every sunset     I’d be running off with him

Snap buttons on a denim shirt, blue jeans and a little dirt

That’s the closest you’ll see me

Feet hanging out a pick-up truck, crazy and a little rough

Running free

That’s the closest to a cowboy       you’ll see me

It was all a bit wonderful and strange

But I’ll never look at a sunset the same now

Snap buttons on a denim shirt, blue jeans and a little dirt

That’s the closest you’ll see me

Feet hanging out a pick-up truck, crazy and a little rough

Running free

Sit fishing on a river bank, swimming in a water tank

That’s the closest you’ll se  e me

Feet hanging out a pick-up truck, crazy and a little rough

Running free

That’s the closest you’ll see me
