See that cowboy at the bar The one at the end with all the scars He got stomped by the meanest bronc in Santa Fe But if he looks a little down and out It ain´t that bronc he´s thinking about It´s that girl that broke his heart along the way
When a cowboy falls he falls hard Sometimes he falls way too far But you can bet that when he hits the ground He´ll get back up and play the part Even with a broken heart He´ll hold the reins and hide the pain inside Love´s always a cowboy´s toughest ride
Girl, just listen to me now I should know what I´m talking about Everything I learned I learned from you I have rode broncs from hell And it hurt me every time I fell But not half as much pain as you put me through
When a cowboy falls he falls hard Sometimes he falls way too far But you can bet that when he hits the ground He´ll get back up and play the part Even with a broken heart He´ll hold the reins and hide the pain inside Love´s always a cowboy´s toughest ride
