How a cowgirl say's goodbye

How a cowgirl say's goodbye Lyrics

A cup of coffee with the first sunlight,
at a last chance texaco.
I'm thumbin' threw a worn out roadmap,
tryin' to decide which way to go.
these empty miles that are memories,
they just seem to linger on.
she left me on this lost highway,
wonderein' why and where she's gone.

chorus

thats how a cowgirl breaks a young mans heart,
thats how my whole world slowly came apart.
with a cold and empty stare as if I wasn't there,
she didn't even stop to cry.
that's how a cowgirl says goodbye.

called up her mama down in abilene,
just to find out how she'd been.
she said she'd stopped awhile in sanantone,
spent some time with an old friend.
with all this distance between us,
I'm sure I never cross her mind.
and it may take all these roads ahead,
just to leave it all behind.

chorus

that's how a cowgirl breaks a young mans heart,
thats how my whole world slowly came apart.
with a cold and empty stare as if I wasn't there,
she didn't even stop to cry.
that's how a cowgirl says goodbye.
