The Only One I Know (Cowboy Life)

Another day break wakes me up to a hotel lobby coffee cup That dirty old white pickup truck with the trailer hooked up by the Denny's, she's mine Last night's bugs on the windshield, fast food trash on the dash meal Speedin' ticket and a doctor bill from a gash I got from a short go in Casper Summer of last year, maybe next year And a ride, and a fall, one day I might win 'em all Just some broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of bein' alone But a right, and a wrong, where I hang my hat is home This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know Cell phone was breakin' up, the night she called to say she'd had enough Of my little white lies and little white lines and wantin' somebody who could never be with her I look back on every fork in the road that I took to chase that buckle of gold And wonder if what I held for what I hold is worth tradin' away Hell I don't know, all I know Is a ride, and a fall, one day I might win 'em all Just some broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of bein' alone But a right, and a wrong, where I hang my hat is home This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know Yeah it'll kill me, before it ever lets me go It'll kill me, but it's the only life I know And I'd rather die than be caught cryin' So I'm just smilin', wear my hat down low Wear my hat down low And a ride, and a fall, one day I might win 'em all Just some broken hearts and broken bones, and a hell of a whole lot of bein' alone But a right, and a wrong, where I hang my hat is home This cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know Yeah this cowboy life might kill me, but it's the only one I know --- The Only One I Know (Cowboy Life) - Cody Johnson
