John Michael Montgomery Little Cowboy's Cry
There's a little boy on his knees beside his bed With a cowboy hat upon his bowed head Tryin' to keep the tears in his eyes And his heart breaks as the little cowboy cries As the cowboy cries He says God forgive me please I didn't want my daddy to leave And I promise to be good this time But his heart breaks as the little cowboy cries There is another heart in pain outside his door His momma heard his cry as she walked the floor Her love for his daddy has died And her heart breaks as her little cowboy cries As her cowboy cries She says God forgive me please I know I made him leave The pain will go away in time But her heart breaks as her little cowboy cries In a smoky little bar way downtown His daddy is drinkin' whiskey down Tryin' to kill the pain he feels inside And his heart breaks as his little cowboy cries And his cowboy cries He says God forgive me please I know I had to leave Things haven't been good for a long, long time But his heart breaks as his little cowboy cries As his cowboy cries As his cowboy cries As his cowboy cries As his cowboy cries
