So you want to be a cowboy 
Well you know it`s more that just a ride 
Guess you got to know the real thing 
If you want to know the other side 
Ain`t nobody riding shotgun 
In this world tonight 

And when you spit, you better mean it 
You got to make `em all believe it 
If you`re gonna be the one 

Stick to your gun 
Ain`t nobody gonna hurt you, baby 
You can go for the trigger 
But only if you have to 
Aim from the heart 
Some will love and some will course you, baby 
And you can go to war 
But only if you have to 
It`s only if you have to 

So you want to be the big time 
Some people have to drag you down 
There`s no living in the backseat 
If you`re gonna drive through town 
And when you pray for independence 
Boy, you better stand your ground 

You got to give it all you got now 
Or you might get shot down 
Fight hard until the battle is won 

Stick to your gun 
Ain`t nobody gonna hurt you, baby 
You can go for the trigger 
But only if you have to 
Aim from the heart 
Some will love and some will course you, baby 
And you can go to war 
But only if you have to 
But only if you have to 

Solo 

Well, you know that I been through it 
I got the scars to prove it 
Fight hard and the Battle is yours 

Stick to your gun 
Ain`t nobody gonna hurt you, baby 
You can go for the trigger 
But only if you have to 
Aim from the heart 
Some will love and some will course you, baby 
And you can go to war 
But only if you have to 
It`s only if you have to 

But stick to your guns
