I pack up my saddle Throw it in that two-horse trailer Back up my truck, hook 'em up And drive away Won't be the first time But this time's the last time She meant it when she said "That's all I've got to say" Never had been thrown like this before I ain't her Cowboy anymore Never saw it comin' But I knew where it was goin' When she asked, "How long this time?" Before I hit the road She didn't come right out and say it But I sure got the message When I reached out to hold her That shoulder sure was cold Figured I'd just let goodbye run it's course I ain't her Cowboy anymore These white lines are a blur Like the last few nights I spent with her I don't know where I went wrong or if I did Like the good ol' boy I am I told her that I understand But Lord knows that I won't, as long as I live Seems lately every time it rains it pours I ain't her Cowboy anymore We met in Denver Settled down in Dallas The best days of my life Were the ones I spent with her You'd think that all that lovin' Ought to count for something Guess I wore out my welcome Like the rowels of these old spurs That Casper sunset's what I'm shootin' for 'Cause I ain't her Cowboy anymore These white lines are a blur Like the last few nights I spent with her I don't know where I went wrong or if I did Like the good ol' boy I am I told her that I understand But Lord knows that I won't, as long as I live Seems lately every time it rains it pours I ain't her Cowboy anymore Her Cowboy anymore I ain't her Cowboy Anymore

Yeah, I like to wear these boots and old blue jeans I keep my cards close to my chest, ace up my sleeve I might be old fashioned, a little stuck in my ways The closest thing to the real thing you'll find these days I ain't no John Wayne Ain't riding off into the sunset, leaving what I love behind Only silhouette smoke from a cigarette up against the western sky In the bottom of the bottle, high in the saddle Thinking I'm better off on my own I've done enough cowboying to know I ain't that kind of cowboy I ain't that kind of cowboy The first time your wild blue eyes looked at me I was all but done for, swore I'd never be One of those silver screen heroes, we know all too well The kind that always ran from what they felt Ain't a chance in hell I'm riding off into the sunset, leaving what I love behind Only silhouette smoke from a cigarette up against the western sky In the bottom of the bottle, high in the saddle Thinking I'm better off on my own I've done enough cowboying to know I ain't that kind of cowboy This ain't one you wanna get up from when you're thrown And I've done enough cowboying to know That I ain't riding off into the sunset, leaving what I love behind Only silhouette smoke from a cigarette up against the western sky In the bottom of the bottle, high in the saddle Thinking I'm better off on my own I've done enough cowboying to know Girl, I've done enough cowboying to know That I ain't that kind of cowboy I ain't that kind of cowboy
