Nickelback - Nickelback - Cowboy Hat Lyrics

Yes, he wore a cowboy hat
Each bone broken in his back
All the money and all the gold
Couldn't buy my love at eight years old

Now I'm in love with a girl that's wrong for me
Ask her, she will disagree
Her father was a small time man
With small time dreams and small time hands

But, oh, but I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when I say I don't know
Gone for good in fact but what does it mean?
Within a year they always sold and bought

Easy enough to just look at her
Whole world on a silver platter
Was that but bad for me?
If I was there the scotch is free

Won round one but it's not over
He don't care 'cause he don't know her
True love is not the same
If I could lend a hand in shame

But, oh, but I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when I say I don't know
Gone for good in fact but what does it mean?
Within a year they always sold and bought

If I was big so much easier to see
Don't hide from me that which I've already seen
You lie to me more than occasionally
Don't lie to me, you lied to me

I'm as high as I'll ever be
I don't mind stay and see
They've all gone, why don't we?
Lonely hands, you and me

But I'm as high as I'll ever be
But later on, lies to see
My past is gone, only from me
I'm alive!

Oh, I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when I say I don't know
Gone for good in fact but what does it mean?
Within a year they always sold and bought

Ooh yeah, remember when it was me
Ooh yeah, driving come down just for me
Ooh yeah, and then we'll try as we've been
Ooh yeah
