Testo Killed The Cowboy

Everybody wanna know where did all the cowboys go
Musta been the whiskey, maybe it was all the Marlboro's
But it ain't none of that, that laid em all low
Yeah, believe me I know

It was that midnight stare
That look in her eyes like a knife to the heart
It was that poison kiss Cherry red lips, oh my God
Leanin' up against the bar and I know
It wasn't the smoke
It wasn't the drink
And I got the proof
If you wanna know what killed the cowboy
A girl like you

Mmm the way she does it wasn't just another rodeo
Lipstick kiss on the mirror and that was all she wrote
Yeah, it's supposed to be me ridin' away
But I'm dyin' in the bed that she made

It was that midnight stare
That look in her eyes like a knife to the heart It was that poison kiss
Cherry red lips, oh my God
Leanin' up against the bar and I know
It wasn't the smoke
It wasn't the drink
And I got the proof
If you wanna know what killed the cowboy
A girl like you

Well she's off in the sunset
She's out on the run
Bet she's halfway to Jackson by now
And I'm heart broke to hell
And I'm drowning the well
While I'm telling the bartender how

It was that midnight stare
That look in her eyes like a knife to the heart
It was that poison kiss
Cherry red lips, oh my God
Leanin' up against the bar and I know
It wasn't the smoke
It wasn't the drink
And I got the proof
If you wanna know what killed the cowboy
A girl like you
