Denim Dan

Denim Dan was a cowboy man And he dressed the part Look here now he can't stand From the breakin' in his heart

Off the wagon again And all the trouble he's in Lord only knows where does he ever gets his start

Is it from the miles that he's been Or the snares he tangles in Or the lonely ways of walkin' in his heart His smile smirked and smeared On his face and you can hear His actions askin' him Why being lonely ain't so hard

Waking up in late morning light Lookin' for any vice in reach He learns his wicked ways From those who're supposed to teach

He's off the wagon again He's pissed his last cowboy killers broken Lord only knows how he's standing on the strength of his own feet

Is it from the miles that he's been Or the snares he tangles in Or the lonely ways of walkin' in his heart His smile smirked and smeared On his face and you can hear His actions askin' him Why being lonely ain't so hard

There's a quiet time when all the wine Is gone along with his sobriety He's sleeping this one off, 'til tomorrow then it's on Again 'til he wakes up from this dream

Denim Dan was a cowboy man And he drank the part Look here now he can't stand 'Cause being lonely ain't so hard
