Cowboy Afraid Of Horses

Lobo Cowboy Afraid Of Horses Lyrics
1.Would I Still Have You

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

When I was young I had a dream
That I would meet someone like you
And we would have a happy home
If the world would leave us alone

So it came to pass it all came true
You needed me like I needed you
But the world kept moving on
And our life was changed by a song

Sometimes I wonder and I worry too
If I did not know how to sing
Would I still have you?
That's the time I wished
I'd never bought that first guitar
I'd be out somewhere in Oklahoma
Fixing cars
But maybe after my hard working
Day was through
I'd still have you

It's hard to have loving on your mind
With people lining up for it all the time
And the world I loved went floating by
How did I miss the hurt in your eyes


2.The War To End All Wars

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Sing the baby off to sleep
Turn off his Mickey Mouse light
Stand alone in the darkness
Prepare yourself for the fight

Across the ocean friends are dying
Here at home it's much the same
Don't cry now precious lady
You know you're not to blame

The sky was clean
And the trees were green
And the earth was a place of joy
When I was a boy


3.My Momma Had Soul

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

When I was just a boy I was never told
Now son don't you listen
To that Rock and Roll
'Cause I was brought up by my Momma
And we were poor as dirt
And the music made us feel better
Everytime our stomachs hurt.

My Momma had soul
My Momma had soul
We may've not had a lot to eat
In the house
But we always had some music
That was playing real loud
My Momma had soul
My Momma had soul

When things were going bad
And the house got dark
Me and Momma'd sit on a bench
Out in the park
We'd hear the jukebox playing
In the corner bar
And the music made us dance and
Sing underneath the summer stars.

You know my Momma got older as
The years went along
But she never got so old
She couldn't dance
To a Rock and Roll song


4.Three Pick-ups

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I delivered papers in the
Early morning rain - Oh what a pain
Getting up and going to school after that
But I saved my pennies and
I saved my dimes
Bought a Fender Stratocaster
On time
Had the best guitar around
And that's a fact

It had three pick-ups
And a tremolo bar
A hard-shell case designed for a star
I couldn't play much
It didn't matter to me
I thought I was Duane Eddy

Music wasn't much back then
I can still remember when
The boys asked me to join their band
People liked my guitar
So I stood in the light
And it seemed that after every night
It was me who always got
The biggest hand


5.Morning Sun

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I've seen you use your pretty body
Like a lady of Kings Cross
I've watched your eyes flow
Like a fountain
'Cause your good friend might have lost
I've seen you hold your head in honor
Stand your ground, refuse to run
But I've never once seen
Your morning sun

I've seen you rage up like an ocean
Pushed on by an evil wind
I've seen you laugh
And beam like sunshine
Over some little thing I might send
I watched you keep
Your head about you
When weaker minds ahve come undone
But I've never once seen
Your morning sun

I've seen you turn up like a savior
When I needed someone near
I've heard you talk just like a sailor
When no one else was around to hear
I've held you close to me at nighttime
And felt our bodies breathe as one
But I've never once seen
Your morning sun


6.Don't Tell Me Goodnight

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Lying there beside me
With your head resting on my arm
Your body feels so warm
And your hair smells
Like a Sunday morning

I feel you moving closer
And I know what you're gonna say
But girl there's just no way
I'll ever like what you'll be saying

Don't tell me goodnight
It makes me feel so empty inside
And if only I could
I wouldn't sleep at all
Don't tell me goodnight
Just let me drift off slowly away
And dream of you

You reach out and you touch me
Just to let me know you're there
And I can feel your hair
And somehow I don't
Feel like sleeping


7.A Cowboy Afraid Of Horses

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I don't talk much
I don't have alot to say
So when it comes to a love life
It's hard to find a way
If it wasn't for bad luck
I'd have no luck at all
And so a woman like you
Backs me up to the wall

I feel like
A cowboy afraid of horses
Just like a sailor
Scared to death of the sea
Like a magician
With his hands tied behind him
That's how I feel
When you're around me

We go out somewhere
There are people staring at you
I feel strange inside
I don't know what to do
I never have had someone
Anyone else would want
But you handle it so well
You just act non-chalant


8.Then I Met You

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Well I never saw a sunset
Or a tree
And I never heard a crow caw
Just for me
I was like a wheel stuck in a rut
Until I gave a chimpanzee a nut
I never saw a flower red and bright
I never saw the stars come out at night
Never liked Thanksgiving or Christmas
Time or my mind
Then I met you
Then I met you

Well I never saw the rain
Fall from the sky
And I never heard a cloud
Talk in my eye
I never saw the old man in the moon
And I've always hated Sunday afternoon
I never knew a baby had to touch
Because her world is not that much
I never really gave this life a chance at all
Then I met you
Then I met you
Thank god I met you


9.Something To See Me Through

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I know I'm a grown man
With a life of my own
I packed up and I left you
I call another place home
But sometimes being grown
Is a hard thing to do
That's the time I start thinking of you

So come and sing me a love song
Like you used to do
I just need a love song
To see me through

We can sit in the back yard
In our old white swing
I know I'll feel better
The moment you start to sing
That's the time my worries leave me
For awhile
That's the time once again I'm a child

A lot of things change
As we grow old
Some things we buy up
And others are sold
But one thing won't change
No matter what I do
That's the way I feel
When I'm with you


10.Thinking Of You

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

When I got back to Atlanta
A whole lot worse for the wear
I may have lost the world I love
But at least I had been there
Lonesome, hurt and worried
With not a lot to do
Driving down Stone Mountain Road
Trying not to think of you

The southern woods are warm
And still
They lay good on my mind
And surely but so slowly
I'm starting to unwind
Trying not to think of things
That you did or didn't do
Here I am once again
Trying not to think of you

But I all do is think of you
And where you might be now
What's new with you?
Do you still have Boo?
I gotta find a way some how
To stop thinking of you

I wonder who I'll find this time
To turn my head for awhile
Maybe I'll pick a Georgia peach
Or maybe walk a mile
Whichever way it
Don't much make a damn what I do
'Cause either way I'll spend my time
Trying not to think of you


11.Everyday Is My Way

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

I used to wake up worrying
'Bout what I had done before
Instead of being happy with what I had
I was always looking for more
Had to make more bread
Had to get ahead of the people
Living next to me
But like a big Dumb Dumb
I was the one...
I was sticking it right to me

Well it took some time but I found my mind
And now I'm looking after myself
I found I can give in now
I have more friends
And friends are people who help
It's much more fun just being someone
Instead of trying to be someone great
I saw the light now I'm not uptight
I made it 'fore it was too late

And now I can't wait to wake up mornings
And look myself in the face
I like being right where I am
Not looking for some other place
I am what I am and I like what I am
And now my life feels right
I'm happy to say I found my way
Everyday is my way of life


12.However...

Lyrics:Lobo
Music:Lobo

Love is a toy to a boy
Wind it up,
It runs down
Wind it up
it...
