Kirsty Maccoll - Don't Come The Cowboy With Me Sonny Jim! lyrics

(kirsty maccoll) Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts Can make you feel nothing at all They'll never remember and they'll never mind If you're counting the cracks in the wall They're quick and they're greedy They never feel guilty They don't know the meaning of hurt The boots just go back on The socks that had stayed on The next time they see you They treat you like dirt The next time they treat you like dirt Now don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim I know lots of those and you're not one of them There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in And you won't come the cowboy with me Don't be too rough on my cold, cold heart It's all I've got left to me now I fell out of favour with heaven somewhere And I'm here for the hell of it now Some girls play cowboys And some boys play harder to get But they're got just the same They smile and say cheese They're so eager to please But they'll never remember your name The names and the places all change But don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim I know lots of those and you're not one of them There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in And you won't come the cowboy with me Did somebody tell you I'm lonely as hell? I didn't expect you to know me so well If I learned a lesson it's how to bounce back again Sometimes I bounce off the wall And sometimes my head hits the floor So don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim I know lots of those and you're not one of them There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in And you won't come the cowboy, oh Don't come the cowboy with me sonny jim I know lots of those and you're not one of them There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in And you won't come the cowboy with me
