Song lyrics

It's all the same, only the names will change

Every day it seems we're wasting away

Another place where the faces are so cold

I'd drive all night just to get back home


I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted dead or alive

Wanted dead or alive


Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days

The people I meet always go their separate ways

Sometimes you tell the day by the bottle that you drink

And times when you're alone, well, all you do is think


I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted (Wanted) dead or alive

Wanted (Wanted) dead or alive


Oh, and I ride


Ooh, I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse I ride

I'm wanted (Wanted) dead or alive


But I walk these streets, a loaded six-string on my back

I play for keeps 'cause I might not make it back

I've been everywhere, (Oh yeah) still I'm standing tall

I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all


'Cause I'm a cowboy

On a steel horse, I ride

I'm wanted (Wanted) dead or alive

And I'm a cowboy

I got the night on my side

And I'm wanted (Wanted) dead or alive


And I ride (And I ride), dead or alive

I still drive (Still drive), dead or alive

Dead or alive

Dead or alive

Dead or alive

Dead or alive
