Urban Cowboy

Won't you pity the urban cowboy
As he walks so cool and slow
He'd really like to act his age
But his age was long ago
Make up your mind, take that plane
You could be with him today
There's too much time to say it in
And nothing left to say
Dream on, lonely cowboy
Too sad to make the change
For the laughing, bright-eyed city girls
Will keep you from the rain
For a long some time before you
He loved another well
But the lady's gone away now
Where she is, there's few can tell
And the man with all the answers
Waits alone for you to come
He sits and feeds upon his dreams
And he'll surely save you some
Dream on, lonely cowboy
Too sad to make the change
For the laughing, bright-eyed city girls
Will keep you from the rain
Into the urban sunset
The urban cowboy strolls
A nameless, fading memory
While the final credit rolls
His mind is on the longhorns
Though he walks the city streets
You're not there to see him brush
The trail dust from his feet
Dream on, lonely cowboy
Too sad to make the change
For the laughing, bright-eyed city girls
Will keep you from the rain
