Lyrics for Ride 'Em Cowboy

They laughed with me then laughed at me They said "how true", they said "not you" They thought how wise, then thought goodbye Your hit your stride, then Mr. Hyde Ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em, get back on again I swam, I sank, top seed, unranked The pole, the wall, the pride, the fall A state of grace, slapped in the face A state of mind, then card declined From great to good, from good to fair To barely pass, stay after class I'm hot I'm cold, I'm bought, I'm sold First accolades then hand grenades They hate your look, they hate your book They hate your guts, you've heard enough It's not your day, it's not your week It's not your month, it's not your year First AOK, then IOU BMOC, then MIA From DIY to DUI From 411 to 911 From soup to nuts, from job to cuts From sure to chance, from can to can'ts From smart to dumb, from bread to crumbs From wowed to bored, Ole, then gored From just desserts o just desserts From you're for me to ca suffit From bon vivant to sycophant From open door to merde alors Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, I got thrown again Ride 'em cowboy, ride 'em, get back on again.
