Lyrics The Cowboy Rides Away - George Strait

The Cowboy Rides Away

I knew the stakes were high right from the start
When she dealt the cards, I dealt my heart
I just found a game that I can’t play
This is where the cowboy rides away
And my heart is sinking like the setting sun
Setting on the things I wish I’d done
It’s time to say goodbye to yesterday
This is where the cowboy rides away
We’ve been in and out of love and in-between
Now we play the final showdown scene
As the credits roll, a sad song starts to play
This is where the cowboy rides away
And my heart is sinking like the setting sun
Setting on the things I wish I’d done
Last goodbye’s the hardest one to say
This is where the cowboy rides away
And the last goodbye’s the hardest one to say
This is where the cowboy rides away
