Captains & Cowboys Lyrics

by Mike Aiken

A ship on the ocean and wide open spaces
It's all one can do to keep hanging around
It's not my intention to give up so easy
I'm just fighting the good fight, I won't give up no ground.

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e108737-mike_aiken~captains_and_cowboys_lyrics.html ]
I wanna live my life like my heros
I wanna give it every thing that I got
I don't need to live up to low expectation
I just can't be anything that I'm not

Save the babies, kiss the ladies, havin drinks with my friends
Throwin down in the barroom like it never will end.
Blue horizons, greener pastures are just round the bend
With the captains and cowboys is where I fit in

I'm gonna ride my pony where there's no reservation
Gonna sail my boat where the wind it blows free
Gonna give all my love with open abandon
Face the trouble of this world and live out my dreams

Save the babies, kiss the ladies, havin drinks with my friends
Throwin down in the barroom like it never will end.
Blue horizons, greener pastures are just round the bend
With the captains and cowboys is where I fit in
