Lonesome Cowboy - Hubert Kah

Silent waiting

Filthy air

Deal a friendly card

Taming your despair

A nervous case

The bus comes in

To reveal the winning hand

Desert highway

Motel bed

Empty glasses

Smell of whisky on his breath

He’s had too much

What a price

What a price to pay

In the mirror

There’s reflections of a younger man

A lonesome cowboy

Has to make his only plan

It’s in the street

Do you know, do you know your way

On the boulevard

A greyhound is the only chance

A lonesome cowboy

Has to leave the desert land

It’s in the street

Do you know, do you know your way

A lonesome cowboy says?

Can you compromise

With urban lies

Touch new pride

Do you think this desperation

Can be buried

When you cross the line

Think of yesterday

Far away

Out of time

Will your heart be disconnected

From the passion

That your leave behind

A lonesome cowboy says?

Another bus is leaving and?

A lonesome cowboy says?
