Northern State - Cowboy Man lyrics

Cowboy Man Oh, nobody knows- Why he's wearing those casual clothes wherever he goes Horses and biks are the things that he likes Everyday's a vacation and I wanna know why Oh nobody knows He drives his big car around his ranch is cool as can be It's only 50 bucks a gallon get the slurpee for free And oh- nobody knows It seems we need him to be- Why do we need him to be- Yeah we still need him to be Why do we need him to be? I saw him talking out of the side of his mouth And I caught him looking out of the side of his eyes He's a cowboy man- or a boy next door- Or maybe even the leader of the free world It seems we need him to be- why do we need him to be? Just like a friend of your dad's just like you and me? Can't we aim a little higher find ourselves a better liar? Save face with a straight face- how did we get here in the first place? Oh- nobody knows Country club reality- I suppose The gra** is greener- the sun's out today The oil is clean it's the American way And oh- nobody knows It seems we need him to be- Why do we need him to be- Yeah we still need him to be Why do we need him to be? But I saw him talking out of the side of his mouth Someone's feeding him the lines and I figured it out He's a cowboy man with his mama's hands He's got the world tied up in his father's plans And oh- nobody knows Cause we need him to be- yeah we still need him to be Relaxed and easy-going, cool, calm and carefree Can't we aim a little higher- shift the focus, flip the script Tip the scales, skip the record, break the cycle, trip the wire? Before he rode off into the setting sun They smiled when they thought of all the things that they'd done- And if it could be him- then why not me? Nobody knows
