[00:00.00]Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys - Johnny Paycheck/Various Artists
[00:04.13]Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold
[00:11.52]They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold
[00:19.47]Lonestar belt buckles and old faded Levi's and each night begins a new day
[00:26.85]If you don't understand him and he don't die young
[00:30.90]He'll probably just ride away
[00:36.25]Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
[00:43.99]Don't let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks
[00:48.12]Make them be doctors and lawyers and such
[00:52.82]Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
[01:00.00]They'll never stay home and they're always alone
[01:04.14]Even with someone they love
[01:09.78]Cowboys like smokey ol' pool rooms and clear mountain mornings
[01:17.43]Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night
[01:25.02]Them that don't know him won't like him
[01:27.47]And them that do sometimes won't know how to take him
[01:32.32]He ain't wrong he's just different but his pride won't let him
[01:36.07]Do the things that make you think he's right
[01:41.57]Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
[01:49.33]Don't let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks
[01:53.40]Make them be doctors and lawyers and such
[01:58.17]Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
[02:05.27]They'll never stay home and they're always alone
[02:09.77]Even with someone they love
