Lyrics
The coyboys in the movies
The portrayal of cowboys in movies is incomplete.
Don't tell you the whole story
Cowboys in movies don't reveal the full reality.
I'm living proof
The singer is living proof of the real cowboy life.
We're not in it for the glory
Cowboys aren't motivated by the pursuit of glory.
Same thing every morning
Every day starts the same for the singer.
Cup of coffee and a smoke
Beginning the day with coffee and a smoke.
Then it's workin’ ‘til my hands draw blood
Hard work that leads to hands bleeding.
And fixin' what is broke
Fixing what is broken is a routine.
This life is hard I'm not gonna lie but cowboys don't cry
Life is tough, but cowboys don't show weakness through tears.
This life is hard just tryin’ to stay alive but cowboys don't cry
Surviving is the challenge, but tears are not shed.
We just get dust in our eyes
Cowboys experience hardship without showing emotions, just getting dust in their eyes.
Every new day in the saddle
Every day on horseback brings a risk of danger.
Brings a new chance to get trampled
The potential of facing danger and getting trampled is constant.
It's not if, it's when you'll break your ass
It's not a matter of 'if' but 'when' one will face hardship.
Yeah every day's a gamble
Every day is a gamble with unpredictable challenges.
This life is hard I'm not gonna lie but cowboys don't cry
Life is tough, but true cowboys remain stoic.
This life is hard just tryin’ to stay alive but cowboys don't cry
Survival is the goal, and tears are not an option.
We just get dust in our eyes
Emphasizing the emotional resilience by getting dust in their eyes.
These scars tell the stories of my life
Scars symbolize the challenges and experiences in the singer's life.
And I thank them God every night
The singer expresses gratitude to God for the stories behind their scars.
These scars tell the stories of my life
Reiterating that scars narrate the singer's life journey.
And I thank them God every night
Continued appreciation to God for the stories represented by the scars.
This life is hard I'm not gonna lie but cowboys don't cry
Life is challenging, but cowboys face it without crying.
This life is hard just tryin’ to stay alive but cowboys don't cry
Survival is difficult, but emotional resilience is a cowboy trait.
Cowboys don't cry no cowboys don't cry
Reaffirming that cowboys do not cry.
We just get dust in our eyes
Underlining the emotional strength by mentioning dust in their eyes.
These scars tell the stories of my life
Scars continue to tell the tales of the singer's life journey.
And I thank them God every night
Gratitude towards God persists for the stories embedded in the scars.
