So you want to be a cowboy   Well you know it's more that just a ride   Guess you got to know the real thing   If you want to know the other side   Ain't nobody riding shotgun   In this world tonight      And when you spit, you better mean it   You got to make 'em all believe it   If you're gonna be the one      Stick to your guns   Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby   You can pull the trigger   But only if you have to   Aim from the heart   Some will love and some will curse you, baby   And you can go to war   But only if you have to   It's only if you have to      So you want to be the big time   Some people have to drag you down   There's no living in the backseat   If you're gonna drive through town   And when you pray for independence   Boy, you better stand your ground      You got to give it all you got now   Or you might get shot down   Fight hard until the battle is won      Stick to your guns   Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby   You can pull the trigger   But only if you have to   Aim from the heart   Some will love and some will curse you, baby   And you can go to war   But only if you have to   But only if you have to      Solo      Well, you know that I been through it   I got the scars to prove it   Fight hard and the Battle is yours      Stick to your guns   Ain't nobody gonna hurt you, baby   You can pull the trigger   But only if you have to   Aim from the heart   Some will love and some will curse you, baby   And you can go to war   But only if you have to   It's only if you have to      But stick to your guns
