“I’m tired of Travelin’...
I paid the cost for gettin’ lost
on some crazy trails.
And I’ve been through
the Rocky Mountains.
Coulda wound up dead,
so crazy in my younger days."
"‘Cause it doesn’t take much,
it takes hardly anything
to get it all mixed up
and make a stupid mistake.
It doesn’t take much to watch
a good thing go bad
but if you’re one of the lucky ones,
you’ll get another chance.”
Cheyenne said:
“ I got some kind of angel.
‘Cause otherwise
I don’t know how
I’d be sittin’ here
‘Cause it used to be,
I’d line ‘em up and slam ‘em down
always watchin’ my back
tryin’ lose my tracks
case of a run-in with the law."
"See it doesn’t take much
it takes hardly anything.
If you don’t know who you are
or what you want
or what you need.
It doesn’t take much for you
to wind up just like me and
have to start all over again
in the middle of your story”
"I’m not the one to preach
about wrong or right
and I’m not tryin’ to tell ya
how to live your life
‘cause noone can point the finger
thinkin’ they’re above the rest
‘cause somewhere in their story
they got a secret"
"‘Cause we’re all Cowboys
ridin’ in one big rodeo
a bunch of bearded ladies
in a freak show
and we’re all hustlin’
something on the street
we want it all so easy"
Cheyenne said:
“It’s time I settled down.
Time to look ahead
Shake off my regret
over losing so much ground.
And I do believe
its lookin’ mighty fine
‘Cause it’s all about happiness
and I'm not wastin'any more time"
"‘Cause it doesn’t take much,
it takes hardly anything
to get it all mixed up
and make a stupid mistake.
It doesn’t take much to watch
a good thing go bad
but if you’re one of the lucky ones,
you’ll get another chance.”
