Space Cowboy

Johnny was a space cowboy, Jenny was a high life girl
Together they went travelling far out, on a crazy playground whirl
Johnny said he'd make it big, 'cause he knew people in the right places
Jenny went along for the ride and showed her face with a winning smile

Chorus
So they drove all day and they played all night
Jenny thought maybe they'd lost their way, Johnny said he'd make it right
Don't stop now we're on a roll, shift it into cruise control
So they drove all day and they played all night

Johnny met his match one day, said too much and picked a fight
Jenny stood by her man, still too soon to see the light
Johnny moved from charm to crime, with no money in the making
Jenny said just one more time, but next day her smile was fading

Chorus

Johnny was a space cowboy, Jenny was a high life girl
Together they went travelling far, on a crazy playground whirl

Chorus

Johnny drank to ease the pain, trying to save his fading dream
Too fast, too soon, too late to mend this is where their journey ends
