cowboys and lonely crowns

Four foot tall With an old staircase guitar The only boy in a small church choir was how he'd get his start Then five foot ten Gone from Matchbox to driving cars He said "Mom and dad, someday I wanna be a superstar." And they said, Boy, your dreams ain't rare They're too high, don't even cry Cuz this life is never fair And he held that weight in his head A hopeless romantic till his eyes lifted and said Maybe I should go Pour a little whiskey inside this tired soul Mmm, cuz cowboys are better off alone And the weight of this crown Pulls six feet underground So he packed his saddle And said, "I guess I'm on my own now." At twenty-four He tried to find his own way out Started washing off the makeup he put on in this old town And asked his church a couple things that they didn't know like Why is it wrong if it's the love he's felt inside his soul? And they said Boy, just try not to feel Don't even cry, and please don't try Cuz that love is never real And he held that weight in his hands A lonely romantic till his eyes lifted and said Maybe I should go Pour a little whiskey inside this tired soul Mmm, cuz cowboys are better off alone And the weight of this crown Pulls six feet underground So he packed his saddle And said, "I guess I'm on my own now." Did he know that save up for guitar Would take him down to Tennessee? That he'd trade that backyard Ph.D. in For a big city dream? That he'd fall in love with a man And have to tell his family? That he'd be asking what love means In a song about shandy? Did he think that smiling little boy Someday would be Me? And so I go With a little whiskey inside this tired soul Mmm cuz cowboys are better off alone And the weight of this crown Will never pull me down So I pack my saddle Cuz I know that there's still far to go With a big old dream that That little boy still holds Mmm and this love is all I've ever known And the weight of this now Will someday be my crown But I pack my saddle Cuz I know I'm on my own for now (For now)
