John Fogerty Broken Down Cowboy
If I was a gamblin? man
Never would?ve let you play your hand
With a broken down cowboy like me
?Cause you never can trust your luck
He?s bad news in a pick-up truck
That broken down cowboy like me
He?s played every card he?s got
Had a good hand but he messed it up
With that bum around tumble down heart
Saddle bags full of pain
Carries ?em around just like a middle name
A losin' streak waitin' for dark
Oh, he?ll string you along
Sing you a lonesome song
But he?ll wind up alone again
No matter how hard you try
Never gonna let you get inside
That tumble down broken down heart
It?s a tough riding rodeo
Mean horse threw him long time ago
A broken down cowboy like me
But the way I feel about you
Wouldn?t want that horse to hurt you too
A broken down cowboy like me
Oh, he?ll string you along
Sing you a lonesome song
But he?ll wind up alone again
If I was a gamblin? man
Never would?ve let you play that hand
With a broken down cowboy like me
