Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys Don't let them pick guitars and drive in old trucks Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys They'll never stay home and they're always alone Even with someone they love
Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold And they'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold Lone Star belt buckles and old faded Levis And each night begins a new day And if you don't understand him and he don't die young He'll probably just ride away
Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys Don't let them pick guitars and drive in old trucks Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys They'll never stay home and they're always alone Even with someone they love
A cowboy loves smokey old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night Them that don't know him won't like him and them that do Sometimes won't know how to take him He's not wrong he's just different and his pride won't let him Do things to make you think he's right
Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys Don't let them pick guitars and drive in old trucks Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys They'll never stay home and they're always alone Even with someone they love
Right up there with a Country Boy Will Survive and Poncho and Lefty.
i just dont know why i never could get into willie's songs. the waylon ones either.
but i do dig me some mississippi blues musicians. home is where the heart is, yes, and home is where you were born : )
but yeah,
if richard knew this,
he'd probably tell me to get my ass out of texas if my heart ain't in it.
meaning if you dont love willie, then you don't...you know.
but i have learned to love this place. it's just...my heart's still in mississippi. and there is NO WAY he'd consider leaving texas to let's go live where my home is, you know? the way i see it, i've been here in texas a very long time and now it's *his* turn to give a little on the matter. : )
I’m looking for blue eyes Has anyone seen him Don’t you tell me He gave up on me I’m looking for blue eyes I’ve got to find him Cause something tells me He’s looking for me
There was a time when blue eyes said he’d love no other His one and only love he swore I’d be There was a time when his blue eyes saw clearer than mine did Storms and rain, tears and pain, bring me back his way
Looking for blue eyes Has anyone seen him No don’t you tell me He gave up on me I’m looking for blue eyes I’ve got to find him Cause something tells me He’s looking for me
I’m looking for blue eyes Has anyone seen him
It’s your Day! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AARON!!! and now, your song in dots: ...... ...... ..!. ..!. ...... .... *drum roll here* <lea3
Those lyrics were surprisingly unsettling. Could be due to the twang.
Happy day to celebrate successfully clawing your way out of the clenching tunnel that is the womb.
Happy Birthday, yo. Mine's in four days!

Has anyone seen him
Don’t you tell me
He gave up on me
I’m looking for blue eyes
I’ve got to find him
Cause something tells me
He’s looking for me
There was a time when blue eyes said he’d love no other
His one and only love he swore I’d be
There was a time when his blue eyes saw clearer than mine did
Storms and rain, tears and pain, bring me back his way
