It's all the same, only the names have changed Everyday it seems we're wasting away Another place where the faces are so cold I'd drive all night just to get back home 'Cause I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive, wanted dead or alive Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days The people I meet always go their separate ways Sometimes you tell the day by the bottle that you drink Times when you're all alone, said all you do is think I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive, 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 and I'm standing tall I seen a million faces and I've rocked them all I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side And I'm wanted dead or alive And I ride dead or alive And I still drive dead or alive Dead or alive, dead or alive Dead or alive, dead or alive
