So you want to be a cowboy Well you know it's more than just a ride Guess you got to know the real thing If you want to know the other side Ain't nobody riding shotgun In the world tonight And when you spit, you better mean it You got to make 'em all believe it If you're gonna be the one Stick to your guns Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby You can go for the trigger But only if you have to Aim from the heart Some will love and some will curse you, baby You can go to war But only if you have to It's only if you have to So you want to be the big time Some people want to drag you down There's no living in the backseat If you're gonna drive through town And when you pray for independence Boy, you better stand your ground
You got to give it all you got now Or you might get shot down Fight hard until the battle is won Stick to your guns Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby You can go for the trigger But only if you have to Aim from the heart Some will love and some will curse you, baby And you can go to war But only if you have to But only if you have to Well, you know that I been through it I got the scars to prove it Fight hard and the Battle is yours Stick to your guns Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby You can go for the trigger But only if you have to Aim from the heart Some will love and some will curse you, baby And you can go to war But only if you have to It's only if you have to But stick to your guns
