[Intro] I got to thinking about all the stuff we worry about and I realized that All that a man really needs Is a horse you can catch when you need him A dog thatll come when you call A good friend who owns an arena And a trailer thats legal to haul A woman wholl share my frustrations When the cow markets falling apart A pair of good spurs, a saddle that fits And a oneton Ford pickup that starts Everything else is windowdressing [Verse 1] Im out here chasin these rainbows that I need to find I go and Lord knows it kills me to leave her behind She drew a low card when she gave me her heart And sometimes its hard to believe That sweet little angel went and got herself tangled In the arms of a cowboy like me [Chorus] Well, I know she deserves more than a drifter that lives for the lights Smoky bars and guitars dont make for no fairytale life And every time I head home, I think Ill find her gone But shes still there and still wants to be In the arms of a cowboy like me [Verse 2] Shes worn a hole in the carpet between the bed and the phone She worries about me when I leave til Im back home Cause theres downtime for killin Theres whiskey and theres women Thats just right for fillin a need Oh, but shes in no danger Theres no room for a stranger In the arms of a cowboy like me [Chorus] I know she deserves more than a drifter that lives for the lights Smoky bars and guitars dont make for no fairytale life Every time I head home, I think Ill find her gone But shes still there and still wants to be In the arms of a cowboy like me [Outro] Yeah, every time I head home, I think Ill find her gone But shes still there and still wants to be In the arms of a cowboy like me In the arms of a cowboy like me A cowboy like me
