Jesse away last summer, a couple of months ago
After all our together, it was hard to see her go
She called me right up when she arrived, asked me one more to come
Or livin' on an LA freeway, Ain't my kinda fun

I I'd rather be a cowboy
I I'd rather ride the reigns
I think I'd rather be a
Then to lay me down and love the chains

We were beginnin', it was such an easy way
back up in the mountains, makin' songs for summer days
She got tired of pickin' daisies, cookin' my for me
She can live the life she wants to, yes, it's alright me

I think I'd rather be a
I I'd rather ride the reigns
I I'd rather be a cowboy
to lay me down and love the lady's chains

I'd live on the side of a mountain
wander through canyons of concrete and steel
I'd laugh with the rain and the sunshine
Then lay down my sun in some starry field

Oh, but I miss her in the morning, I awake alone
The of her laughter, is a cold and empty sound
But her memory always makes me smile, and I you to know
I love her yes I her, just enough to let her go

I I'd rather be a cowboy
I I'd rather ride the reigns
I I'd rather be a cowboy
to lay me down and love the lady's chains

I think I'd rather be a
I think I'd rather the reigns
I think I'd be a cowboy
Then to lay me down and love lady's
