Like a candle in the wind
Sometimes I'm getting weak
But who'll be there to dry
The tears I'm crying?
Like a rainbow in sky
When the sun kisses the rain
I can't tell when and where I'm going

Cold winds are blowing strong
But who will be by my side and
Keep me warm through the night?
When the bottle is your only friend
I realize

I'm just a rock 'n' roll cowboy
Riding down these streets alone
I'm wanted like an outlaw
Someday I'm coming home
To get my piece of heart and soul

Like a bird who learns to fly
I left my sheltered home
But I lost my way and
Sometimes lost my senses
Like a champion in the ring
Drowning in his fame
I forget the pain I paid for glory

Too late for me to say goodbye
I can't turn back time
When my life was mine
But it's not too late to
Make a brand new start because I know

I'm just a rock 'n' roll cowboy
Riding down these streets alone
I'm wanted like an outlaw
Someday I'm coming home
To get my piece of heart and soul
Baby, 'cause I gave it all for rock and roll

I'm just a rock 'n' roll cowboy
Riding down the streets alone
I'm wanted like an outlaw
Someday I'm coming home
To get my piece of heart and soul
Baby, 'cause I gave it all for rock and roll

I am just a rock 'n' roll cowboy
Riding down the streets alone
I'm wanted like an outlaw
Someday I'm coming home
To get my piece of heart and soul
Baby, 'cause I gave it all for rock and roll

Oh, baby walking down these streets
Gave it all for rock 'n' roll
Yes, I gave it all for rock 'n' roll
