I have a maker He formed my heart Before even time began My life was in his hands He knows my name He knows my every thought He sees each tear that falls And hears me when I call I have a Father He calls me his own He'll never leave me No matter where I go He knows my name He knows my every thought He sees each tear that falls And hears me when I call He knows my name He knows my every thought He sees each tear that falls And hears me when I call He knows my name He knows my every thought He sees each tear that falls And hears me when I call He hears me when I call

I've been carrying my trouble In this pack strapped to shoulder Ever since I was a baby I've been running from everything I know Don't you tell me 'bout my trouble Nobody knows about my trouble Nobody knows about my trouble Except for my baby and me I was born a cowboy Way out west in New Mexico Time's were tough, we had to let it go We moved to town but they couldn't move it out of me It was way down in my blood Thicker than anyone understood Nobody thought that I ever would Get away with the trouble in me And I've been carrying my trouble In this pack strapped to my shoulder Ever since I was a baby I've been running from everything I know Don't you tell me 'bout my trouble 'Cause nobody knows about my trouble Nobody knows about my trouble Except for my baby and me Well, it didn't take too long For the pills and the bottom of a bottle To dig a deep grave with a shovel And bury everything that a young boy needs But I found me a guitar One lonely night in a border town My pain, I started to right it down But it wouldn't stay away from me And I've been carrying my trouble In this pack strapped to shoulder Ever since I was a baby I've been running from everything I know Don't you tell me about my trouble 'Cause nobody knows about my trouble Nobody knows about my trouble Except for my baby and me So I got the hell out of there Made my way up to the big town Checked myself into the lost and found What do you know, my baby come for me Now I'm living the good life Away from all of the bad advice I take every day like it's a paradise So people stay away from me I've been carrying my trouble In this pack strapped to shoulder Ever since I was a baby I've been running from everything I know Don't you tell me about my trouble 'Cause nobody knows about my trouble Nobody knows about my trouble Except for my baby and me

Flying cowboys Down there by the river is a man Whose horn is twisted into shapes Unknown to the wicked and the wise And he bears the look of an animal Who's seen things no animal should ever see He has been driven beyond all towns And all the systems until now though it is Long past too far he keeps going Because it's a desert Because it's a desert We come to the river We'll walk away from all this now We come to the water We'll walk away from all this now She first saw him he was standing in the doorway Illuminated from behind by a light Though imaginary posses chased them To these distant adobes Standing on the cliffs today I thought I saw you below My shadow growing smaller It's a desert because Because it's a desert They'll be asking me about you forever I guess We come to the river We'll walk away from all this now We come to the water We'll walk away from all this now Long coats on the prairie Lying in the dust Who can I turn to? Who can I trust? Were you walking on the water? Playing in the sun? But the world is turning faster Than it did when I was young When I was young When I was young Oh, when I was young I was a wild, wild one

We will fly Way up high Where the cold wind blows Or in the sun Laughing having fun With the people that she knows And if the situation Should keep us separated You know the world won't fall apart And you will free the beautiful bird That's caught inside your heart Can't you hear her? Oh she cries so loud Casts her wild note Over water and cloud That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' We'll be riding on the horses, yeah Way up in the sky, little darlin' And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up You will grow And until you go I'll be right there by your side And even then Whisper the wind And she will carry up your ride I hear all the people of the world In one bird's lonely cry See them trying every way they know how To make their spirit fly Can't you see him? He's down on the ground He has a broken wing Looking all around That's the way it's gonna be, little darlin' You go riding on the horses, yeah Way up in the sky, little darlin' And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up Can't you hear her? Oh she cries so loud Casts her wild note Over water and cloud I'll pick you up darlin' if you fall Don't worry 'bout a thing little girl Because I was young myself not so long ago And when I was young When I was young And when I was young, oh I was a wild, wild one.
