It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday, it seems we're wasting away
Another place, where the faces are so cold
I drive all night, just to get back home

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
And I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
The people that I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day by the bottle that you drink
And times you're all alone all you do is think

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
And I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive, oh

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
And I'm wanted dead or alive

And I walk these streets
A loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps
'Cause I might not make it back

I been everywhere
Still I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces
And I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
And I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
And I'm wanted dead or alive

And alive, dead or alive
I stood by dead or alive
Dead or alive, dead or alive
Dead or alive, dead or alive
