Lyrics My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys - Willie Nelson
I
grew
up
a-dreamin'
of
bein'
a
cowboy
And
lovin'
the
cowboy
ways
Pursuin'
the
life
of
my
high-ridin'
heroes
I
burned
up
my
childhood
days
I
learned
all
the
rules
of
a
modern-day
drifter
Don't
you
hold
on
to
nothin'
too
long
Just
take
what
you
need
from
the
ladies,
then
leave
them
With
the
words
of
a
sad
country
song
My
heroes
have
always
been
cowboys
And
they
still
are,
it
seems
Sadly,
in
search
of,
but
one
step
in
back
of
Themselves
and
their
slow-movin'
dreams
Cowboys
are
special
with
their
own
brand
of
misery
From
bein'
alone
too
long
You
could
die
from
the
cold
in
the
arms
of
a
nightman
Knowin'
well
that
your
best
days
are
gone
Pickin'
up
hookers
instead
of
my
pen
I
let
the
words
of
my
youth
fade
away
Old
worn-out
saddles,
and
old
worn-out
memories
With
no
one
and
no
place
to
stay
My
heroes
have
always
been
cowboys
And
they
still
are,
it
seems
Sadly,
in
search
of,
and
one
step
in
back
of
Themselves
and
their
slow-movin'
dreams
Sadly,
in
search
of,
and
one
step
in
back
of
Themselves
and
their
slow-movin'
dreams
