If I was a cowboy, I'd be wild and free,
Rolling around these towns like tumbleweeds.
I'd be a legend at loving and leaving,
Nipping on a whiskey and numbing up my feelings.
You thought the west was wild, but you ain't saddled up with me,
If I was a cowboy, I'd be the queen.

Forget your high society, I'm soakin' it in kerosene.
Light 'em up and watch them burn, teach them what they need to learn; ha!
Dirty hands ain't made for shakin', ain't a rule that ain't worth breakin'.
Well, I'm givin' up on love 'cause love's given up on me.

And I'll grab the wheel and point it west,
Pack the good and leave the rest.
I'll drive until I find the missing piece.
You said I wouldn't get too far on a tank of gas
And an empty heart,
But I have everything I'll ever need.
I got this old guitar and a brand new set of strings.

And if the house just keeps on winning,
I got a wildcard up my sleeve.
And if love keeps giving me lemons,
I'll just mix 'em in my drink.
And if the whole wide world stops singing
And all the stars go dark,
I'll keep a light on in my soul,
Keep a bluebird in my heart.

I'm a wild child and a homing pigeon,
Caravan and an empty kitchen.
Bare feet on the tile with my head up in the clouds
One heart goin' both directions,
One love and a couple of questions:
Am I settlin' up or settlin' down?
Am I settlin' up or settlin' down?

I'm going home, gonna load my shotgun,
Wait by the door and light a cigarette.
If he wants a fight, well, now he's got one.
And he ain't seen me crazy yet.
He slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
Don't that sound like a real man?
I'm gonna show him what little girls are made of:
Gunpowder and lead.

Another vice, another town
Where my past can't run me down.
Another life, another call,
Another bed I shouldn't crawl out of
At 7 AM with shoes in my hand.
Said I wouldn't do it, but I did it again.
And I know I'll be gone tomorrow night.
Mm, another vice.

If you borrow dresses like you borrow time,
If you dream all day and drink all night,
If you're looking for love but willing to fight
Over men and mama's and Miller Lites,
Well then, we should be friends.<p>I don't know you well but I know that look.
And I can judge the cover 'cause I read the book
On losing sleep and gaining weight,
On pain and shame and crazy trains.
