Ride 'em Cowboy Songtext

von Sparks

They laughed with me then laughed at me
They said "how true", they said "not you"
They thought how wise, then thought goodbye
Your hit your stride, then Mr. Hyde
Ride 'em, I got thrown again
Ride 'em, get back on again
I swam, I sank, top seed, unranked
The pole, the wall, the pride, the fall
A state of grace, slapped in the face
A state of mind, then card declined
From great to good, from good to fair
To barely pass, stay after class
I'm hot I'm cold, I'm bought, I'm sold
First accolades then hand grenades
They hate your look, they hate your book
They hate your guts, you've heard enough
It's not your day, it's not your week
It's not your month, it's not your year
First AOK, then IOU
BMOC, then MIA
From DIY to DUI
From 411 to 911
From soup to nuts, from job to cuts
From sure to chance, from can to can'ts
From smart to dumb, from bread to crumbs
From wowed to bored, Ole, then gored
From just desserts o just desserts
From you're for me to ca suffit
From bon vivant to sycophant
From open door to merde alors
Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, I got thrown again
Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, get back on again.
