Silent waiting 
Filthy air 
Deal a friendly card 
Taming your despair 
a nervous case 
The bus comes in 
To reveal the winning hand 
Desert highway 
Motel bed 
Empty glasses 
Smell of whisky on his breath 
He's had too much 
What a price 
What a price to pay.

In the mirror 
There's reflections of a younger man 
A lonesome cowboy 
Has to make his only plan 
It's in the street 
Do you know, do you know your way 
On the boulevard 
A greyhound is the only chance 
A lonesome cowboy 
Has to leave the desert land 
It's in the street 
Do you know, do you know your way 
A lonesome cowboy says ?

Can you compromise 
With urban lies 
Touch new pride 
Do you think this desperation 
Can be buried 
When you cross the line 
Think of yesterday 
Far away 
Out of time 
Will your heart be disconnected 
From the passion 
That your leave behind 
A lonesome cowboy says ? 
Another bus is leaving and ? 
A lonesome cowboy says ?
