Merely Foolish

Look out my window, I'm always going somewhere Denver Colorado, San Antone, got a lot of friends there This old cowboy heart, she called me Lucky Seven I've journeyed so far but it's a long long way from Earth to Heaven It's all a rodeo, a dog and pony show I play it cool you know, when I am clueless On my high horse my friend, headlong into the wind A fool I've never been, just merely foolish Wasted years, crazy dreams when I was younger Hollow cheers so it seems chasing down the thunder It's all a rodeo, a dog and pony show I play it cool you know, when I am clueless On my high horse my friend, headlong into the wind A fool I've never been, just merely foolish Regret is a hurt that lingers now I'm older Sorry is a word, I wish I would have told her It's all a rodeo, a dog and pony show I play it cool you know, when I am clueless On my high horse my friend, headlong into the wind A fool I've never been, just merely foolish Just a big parade from cradle to the grave Put on your smile and bravely wave hello Life's a long hard ride and at the finish line Love is the only prize rarer than gold It's all a rodeo, a dog and pony show I play it cool you know, when I am clueless On my high horse my friend, headlong into the wind A fool I've never been, just merely foolish Copyright 2017.
