about

Inspired by the busking years in Paris.

lyrics

The Metro Cowboy
was the new kid in this town
He had them western boots,
a country kind of sound
And an attitude
like nobody else around

He thought he'd make a franc
playing on them metro trains
And before too long
he was making some pretty good change
He thought he had it licked,
he though he had won the game

The Metro Cowboy
does his singing under ground
The Metro Cowboy's
got another week left in town
The Metro Cowboy's
got another franc left to earn
The Metro Cowboy's
got another thing left to learn

Inst. verse form

Then one night
with nothing left to gain
He got himself real drunk
until he could feel no pain
And then he stepped in front
of that outbound metro train
And now...

The Metro Cowboy
does his singing under ground
The Metro Cowboy's
got another week left in town
The Metro Cowboy's
got another franc left to earn
The Metro Cowboy's
got another thing left to learn

The Metro Cowboy
does his singing under ground
