Lyrics
Cannonballs and Cowboys
Intro: OHHHH 4X
Verse 1:
Up in that tree house carved in the floor
You'll find our names, and some sticks that look like swords
We'd sail like pirates into an ocean of clouds
Share secrets, joke and laugh till the sun went down
Pre:
I still remember when you moved away
My good 'ol friend, it never felt the same
Still remember when I saw you wave
Out your Daddy's truck drivin' away
When there were, oh there were
Chorus:
Cannonballs and cowboys
kick'n up dust and making noise
This is how we lived our lives
The glow of freedom in our eyes
Cannonballs and cowboys
OHHHH 4X
Verse 2:
This place ain't changed though we're grown men now
Time really flies but some way some how
Pre 2:
I still remember how we used to wait
In the field by the river then chase the trains
The excitement running though our veins
Its alive inside me, to this day
When there were, there were
Chorus:
Cannonballs and cowboys
kick'n up dust and making noise
This is how we lived our lives
The glow of freedom in our eyes
Cannonballs and cowboys
OHHHH 4X
Bridge:
Gettin' into our first fistfights
Sneakin out, goof'n off all night
Throw'n snowballs in the winter time
Memories I'll keep for my whole life
Chorus:
Cannonballs and cowboys
The good ol days that we enjoyed
Just a moment for the rest of time
Will last you for a million miles
Cannonballs and cowboys
Chorus:
Cannonballs and cowboys
kick'n up dust and making noise
This is how we lived our lives
The glow of freedom in our eyes
Cannonballs and cowboys
OHHHH 4X
