He’s been known to lose more than he wins  He falls down just to get back up again  And when he smiles his face is weathered and leathered and lined  You can tell he’s learned to laugh thru a lot of hard times  He gets by without shoving a drifter and a dreamer  Born to roam rolls his own what you get is what you see here    Once a cowboy always a cowboy  Between the blue sky and unbroken ground he wears his freedom like a crown  Let the whole world around him change that don’t mean a thing  Once a cowboy always a cowboy    She tries to tell him he’s running outta time  But that ain’t what you’d see if you were looking thru his eyes  He’s still chasing sunsets still trying to find  Something better than what he left behind  She tries to love him but somehow she understands  That it was over the moment it began    Once a cowboy always a cowboy  Between the blue sky and unbroken ground he wears his freedom like a crown  Let the whole world around him change that don’t mean a thing  Once a cowboy always a cowboy    He’s been known to lose more than he wins  He falls down just to get back up again    Once a cowboy always a cowboy  Between the blue sky and unbroken ground he wears his freedom like a crown  Let the whole world around him change that don’t mean a thing  Once a cowboy always a cowboy
