jack m. senff – real life cowboy lyrics

Loading...

oh the room is full
of faces i don’t recognize
and i am all in black
a stranger at the back of a funeral
for a cowboy
who’s legacy’s defined
by those he leaves behind
and the mess they made
the debts they’ll never pay
and on the speaker plays
“i did it my way”

now we’re outside
watching the carriage ride
mike’s so skinny with his cigarette
as the smoke plumes i’m wondering
if i’ve ever seen a real life cowboy
long and lean in their blue jeans
it’s a fitting sight for this sorry scene
may he be forever wild and free
of all this sh+t he leaves
still unraveling…

then the horses round the corner
to join back with the mourners
and everyone is silent
in reverence of the final ride
of the cowboy
off to greener pasture
the family all but scattered
and here i am
a stranger watching them

and if i wrote this song
where would i even begin?
