Baby you’re so cool
with your Wranglers and your boots
You act tough ‘til things get a little bit tougher than you
I know you don’t want strings
Yeah, you just want me
wrapped around your finger, loose enough to never really tie you down
‘Cause there’s always a bigger sky in a better town
You put the boy in cowboy
You put the ride off into the sun
You ain’t restless, you’re just selfish
And you don’t ever wanna to grow up
This ain’t a movie
You ain’t John Wayne
But this is the part where you watch me leave
You put the boy in cowboy
You ain’t the man for me, no
Baby you’re so free
Like you say you were born to be
Don’t you know that freedom’s just another word for lonely
I guess you’ll have yourself to keep you company
You put the boy in cowboy
You put the ride off into the sun
You ain’t restless, you’re just selfish
And you don’t ever wanna to grow up
This ain’t a movie
You ain’t John Wayne
But this is the part where you watch me leave
You put the boy in cowboy
You ain’t the man for me
and you’ll never be
You put the boy in cowboy
You put the ride off into the sun
Tell yourself that you can’t help it but running don’t run in the blood
This ain’t a movie
You ain’t John Wayne
But this is the part where you watch me leave
You put the boy in cowboy
You ain’t the man for me
and you’ll never be
and you’ll never be
