Randy Newman - Cowboy Lyrics






Cold gray buildings where a hill should be
Steel and concrete closin' in on me
City faces haunt the places
I used to roam
Cowboy, cowboy - can't run, can't hide
Too late to fight now - too tired to try

Wind that once blew free
Now scatters dust to the sky
Cowboy, cowboy - can't run, can't hide
Too late to fight now - too tired to try

    I see a woman. On a train. Coming into the station of the bustling city. Flashback to a man still on the open plains, his eyes squinting toward the sunset. His expression worn. They're side by side in two different worlds. Together. Apart.

    I was here

    Very much in the mode of an Aaron Copland composition.
