those cigarettes were worth the time
She wished she had the man that
she adored right by her side
Years went by like shooting stars and
you think you'll live forever
Burnin' time just like cigarettes,
losin' breath and feelin' weather
Sometimes he'd drink and smoke
just to cover up the pain
Saw all things as a boy that
His world was like a powder keg
and his life was like a dream
But when life was just too much,
At least you still love me
Those cowboy killers weren't
Those cowboy killers weren't
Cowboy killers weren't worth the time
Those cowboy killers aren't
Smokin' cigarettes and drinkin'
Left behind his grandkids and
Life was full of splendor
but he cut it way too short
Died at 65 smokin' cigarettes
Those cowboy killers weren't
Those cowboy killers weren't
Those cowboy colors weren't
She wished she had him back as
she speaks with teary eyes
Telling me to quit them cigarettes,
my girl wants me by her side
My girl wants me by her side
Sometimes he'd fall short of breath,
can't say he loves her before he rests
But she knows he loves her so,
those cowboy killers that made him go
Those cowboy killers weren't
Those cowboy killers weren't
Those cowboy killers weren't
