Jon Pardi - Ain't Always The Cowboy Lyrics






Her hands wrapped up in mine
Tears rollin' out of her eyes
No messin' with a made-up mind
Sun settin' on goodbye
Yeah, it's hard to believe
It wasn't me tryin' to leave this time

It ain't always the cowboy
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
Gone's just what they do
That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'
Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet
It ain't always the cowboy that rides away

I've never seen over from this side
Never heard lonely get this quiet
Still I can't keep from smilin'
'Cause damn that girl can fly

It ain't always the cowboy
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
Gone's just what they do
That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'
Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet
It ain't always the cowboy that rides away

A tumbleweed heart, chasin' that wind
Goin' too far, wherever that is

It ain't always the cowboy
That ain't got a lot of hang around
Ain't got no settle down in their boots
Gone's just what they do
That restless, runnin', searchin' for somethin'
Leavin' love in the dust of a midnight Chevrolet
It ain't always the cowboy that rides away

Rides away
It ain't always the cowboy

  41. R.... L....

    This is a little piece of heaven right here on earth. Just saw him play live in Jersey & he nailed this.

  42. C.... N....

    YuriSinclair Yes Sir.

  45. S.... M....

    Nope this cowgirl rode away from a man she loved for 30 years because he was to stupid to see her worth. Thanks Jon for writing this amazing song.

  46. l.... c....

    And they say country music is changing no it's a trap they are fake

  47. S.... ....

    Golden!

  48. T.... J....

    We learn from the best!

  49. S.... ....

    Every time I hear the first few seconds I fall in love with this song all over again. This song is pure gold and one of my very favorite songs from Jon Pardi and that says a lot. A really beautiful melody and amazing vocals with some wonderful lyrics. I‘m from Germany and I‘m the only one I know who listens to Country music but I‘m really glad I do, I don‘t want to miss this one !

  50. S.... 8....

    I cant get enough of it!

  51. K.... D....

    keep up the real country and you'll have my vote

  52. R.... R....

    Awesome man!! This is country music!

  53. M.... P....

    His performance of this was awesome recently in phoenix. He was there with Chris Lane, McGraw, and Midland, and strangely Pardi was by far the best.

  54. J.... P....

    I love old school country and this guy is bringing it back

    J.... P....

    Josh Pruitt check out Sturgill Simpson, Charley Crockett, Tyler Childers and Colter wall.

  55. T.... P....

    Love this

  56. P.... C....

    I remember when Jason Aldean and Kieth Urban sounded this good... but then they all went click track and Hollywood... Country "Truth!

    P.... C....

    There's nothing country about Keith urban!!!! Never has,never will!!! Wish I could've kicked his ass when a few years back their were doing a tribute to the king George strait and he does a tribute to Marty Robbins. Nothing against Marty Robbins music. But it was irrelevant. It was about George strait!!

    P.... C....

    Ismael Alcantar So there’s a tribute jam for Strait, people are doing covers... he shows up and does Robbins... classic

  57. G.... G....

    Hurry up and drop this album and take my damn money!

  58. J.... N....

    I'm drunk rn

    J.... N....

    🤟🍻

  59. J.... M....

    Country music is back!

  60. J.... S....

    I’m an old guy but i love his music and wish the industry would give him more air time.

  61. S.... R....

    His voice just takes me from the first verse🤠🎤🎼 such great song, going to be another great album. JP fan for life!

  62. C.... S....

  70. t.... ....

    THIS guy is amazing,,,,,This song right here will be timeless,,,and number 1 in a few weeks,,,,,PROMISE THAT BRO

  71. Z.... L....

    Datsright Jon! Damn good song.

  72. T.... K....

    Jon has it all. I hope he's still around when I'm old and grey.

  73. H.... ....

    Just saw him in concert last night and wow...

  74. G.... G....

    Jon's just not singing about country music. He is county music. He ropes and rides. George strait part 2.

  75. b.... s....

    Fairly mediocre compared to previous. Mr Luke defiantly steaming ahead in the song writing stakes.

  76. J.... H....

    Now that’s what I call a song that’s some real country right there ! ! ! 👍

    J.... H....

    Johnny H takes my breath away! Real country is in my blood!

  77. b.... g....

    The more I listen to this song, the more it means.

  78. r.... s....

    John Pardi picked up the torch from George, and is keeping true country alive today.

  79. C.... J....

    Do you make any bad songs Jon ?

  80. Y.... L....

    sounds good to me.

  81. P.... D....

    Great great sound .. jon is the most country guy

  82. P.... O....

    Highly addictive!
    Great job. 🇧🇷

  83. C.... L....

    Yes Jon you took my heart baby.
    A great song!!
    Keep up the great job!!

  84. M.... P....

    I love this.

  85. K.... ....

    Jon pardi is underrated we need more singers like him

  86. C.... ....

    Damn it’s a good song!!🔥🔥

  87. h.... 3....

    gah damn. you did it again brother!

  88. I.... C....

    Yall, "Hang out" doesn't mean having good time, going out etc. What does he mean when he sings "There ain't got a lot of hanging out" ?

    I.... C....

    Igor Campos he says hang around

    I.... C....

    Hang around meaning a couple girls don't like or know how to wait?

  89. S.... G....

    I hope this real country stays and that other new "country" the radio plays rides away. 🙏

    S.... G....

    @Joseph Stiles george straight said it best. Sometimes it gets a little lost but it always finds it's way back. This is a great example of his Statement.

    S.... G....

    Steve Garcia yep it is a little lost and this proves that. I hope it finds its way back

    S.... G....

    @Joseph Stiles lol you like randal king?

    S.... G....

    Steve Garcia yeah

    S.... G....

    same brother

  90. R.... J....
