You Ain't No Cowboy - Jenna Paulette

Lipstick letter 'cross the mirror this morning Said good-bye baby, you left without warning Like a thief in the night you ran away with my heart I can't believe my eyes, must be a bad dream You always said we had a good thing You never once let on, we were falling apart That ain't no way to go Girl, it just ain't right Don't you think, that I deserve, to hear you say goodbye That ain't no way to go Was it all a lie After all this time that ain't no way to go Gettin' nowhere I'm tired of thinkin' Guess I'll do a little wishful drinkin' Make a whiskey wish upon a star Train whistle blowin' down the tracks Lonesome sound says she ain't comin' back It's such a cold blow from out of the dark That ain't no way to go Girl, it just ain't right Don't you think, that I deserve, to hear you say goodbye That ain't no way to go Now was it all a lie After all this time that ain't no way to go Now girl it just ain't right Don't you think, that I deserve, to hear you say goodbye That ain't no way to go Now was it all a lie After all this time that ain't no way to go

There ain't no grave can hold my body down There ain't no grave can hold my body down When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna rise right out of the ground Ain't no grave can hold my body down Well, look way down the river What do you think I see? I see a band of angels, and they're coming after me Ain't no grave can hold my body down There ain't no grave can hold my body down Well, look down yonder, Gabriel Put your feet on the land and sea But Gabriel, don't you blow your trumpet 'til you hear it from me There ain't no grave can hold my body down Ain't no grave can hold my body down Well, meet me, Jesus, meet me Meet me in the middle of the air And if these wings don't fail me I will meet you anywhere Ain't no grave can hold my body down There ain't no grave can hold my body down Well, meet me, mother and father Meet me down the river road And momma you know that I'll be there When I check in my load Ain't no grave can hold my body down There aint no grave can hold my body down There ain't no grave can hold my body down

There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they always been and they intend to stay I can't explain why we live this way We do it every day Preachers on the podium speaking of saints Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change Old ladies laughing from the fire escape Cursing my name I gotta a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same A window and a pigeon with a broken wing You can spend your whole life working for something Just to have it taken away People walk around pushing back their debts Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets Talking about nothing, not thinking about death Every little heartbeat, every little breath People walk a tightrope on a razor's edge Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons It could be a bomb, or a bullet, or a pen Or a thought, or a word, or a sentence There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they always been and they intend to stay I don't know why I say the things I say But I say them anyway But love will come set me free Love will come set me free, I do believe Love will come set me free, I know it will Love will come set me free, yes Prison walls still standing tall Some things never change at all Keep on building prisons, gonna fill them all Keep on building bombs, gonna drop them all Working your fingers bare to the bone Breaking your back, make you sell your soul Like a lung, it's filled with coal Suffocating slow The wind blows wild and I may move But politicians lie and I am not fooled You don't need no reason or a three piece suit To argue the truth The air on my skin and the world under my toes Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes Chaos and commotion wherever I go Love I try to follow Love will come set me free Love will come set me free, I do believe Love will come set me free, I know it will Love will come set me free, yes There ain't no reason things are this way It's how they always been and they intend to stay I can't explain why we live this way We do it every day

I'm kin to the rovin' wind that brings the norther in Along that dusty trail I'll take my stand The steers are big and bold and the nights are often cold But I'll get by so long as I can Throw that rope and brand that calf dream of a girl in a photograph I got no home I got no wife but I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life I'm up at the crack of dawn and I throw the bacon on Seems somehow my work is never through When I get done at night all the stars are big and bright But then that's sorta what you're used to when you Throw that rope and brand that calf dream of a girl in a photograph I got no home I got no wife but I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life The hot dry wind may blow and you'll see me in the rain and snow With just an old campfire to keep me warm I'll move the herd along and I'll greet them with a song So I guess that I was born Throw that rope and brand that calf dream of a girl in a photograph I got no home I got no wife but I'll be a doggone cowboy all of my life
