I'd Rather Be a Cowboy (Lady's Chains)

Jesse went away last summer, a couple of months ago
 After all our time together, it was hard to see her go
 She called me right up when she arrived, asked me one more time to come
 Or livin on an LA freeway, Aint my kinda havin fun
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 I think Id rather ride the reigns
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 Then to lay me down and love the ladys chains
 We were just beginnin, it was such an easy way
 Layin back up in the mountains, makin songs for summer days
 She got tired of pickin daisies, cookin my meals for me
 She can live the life she wants to, yes, its alright with me
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 I think Id rather ride the reigns
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 Then to lay me down and love the ladys chains
 Id rather live on the side of a mountain
 Than wander through canyons of concrete and steel
 Id rather laugh with the rain and the sunshine
 Then lay down my sun down in some starry field
 Oh, but I miss her in the morning, when I awake alone
 The absence of her laughter, is a cold and empty sound
 But her memory always makes me smile, and I want you to know
 I love her yes I love her, just enough to let her go
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 I think Id rather ride the reigns
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 Then to lay me down and love the ladys chains
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 I think Id rather ride the reigns
 I think Id rather be a cowboy
 Then to lay me down and love ladys chains
