Lyrics of Louisiana Child – Cocaine Cowboy

VERSE 1:
Cocaine cowboy
Go on and blow some steam
Take my money, take my guns
You better leave my keys

Cocaine cowboy
Out here on a killing spree
Small town roads are lined with bones
Texas to Tennessee, (Tennessee)

Oh, yea

VERSE 2:
Cocaine cowboy
Ridin’ in the desert heat
Silver tongue and midnight lungs
Since 1817

Cocaine cowboy
I know you play for keeps
Bounty’s been on my head since
The want became the need, the need, the need
…

CHORUS:
And if you ever feel alone
Don’t come to me so that you still feel known
Gunslinger without a home
Born from stone, to stone
Ooo

VERSE 3:
Cocaine cowboy
Get the hell away from me
Cash your time on someone else’s dime
Death drinks his whiskey, neat

VERSE 4:
Cocaine cowboy
Your deals, they don’t come cheap
Black hole sun to swallow some
Of the remaining me, (me)

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE

FINAL VERSE:
Cocaine cowboy, you’re like a distant dream
Defied your odds, now go with God,
I hope you rest in peace
