Rhinestone Cowboy

Cowboys Are Frequently, Secretly Fond of Each Other

Well, there's many a strange impulse out on the plains of West Texas
There's many a young boy who feels things he can't comprehend
And a small town don't like it when somebody falls between sexes
No, a small town don't like it when a cowboy has feelings for men

And I believe to my soul that inside every man there's the feminine
And inside every lady there's a deep manly voice loud and clear
Well, a cowboy may brag about things that he's done with his women
But the ones who brag loudest are the ones that are most likely queer

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
Say, what do you think all them saddles and boots was about?
And there's many a cowboy who don't understand the way that he feels for his brother
And inside every cowboy there's a lady that'd love to slip out

And there's always somebody who says what the others just whisper
And mostly that someone's the first one to get shot down dead
So when you talk to a cowboy don't treat him like he was a sister
You can't f*ck with a lady that's sleepin' in each cowboy's head

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
What did you think all them saddles and boots was about?
And there's many a cowboy who don't understand the way that he feels for his brother
And inside every lady there's a cowboy who wants to come out
And inside every cowboy there's a lady that'd love to slip out

The Hurtin' Kind

[ Featuring Midland ]

Hammer down on the highway
Giddy up and goin' my way, you
The thunder and the lightning in your eyes say
You're running out of ways, little runaway blue

Heartache is a lonely road
A ramblin' man, just a broke down Romeo
Know a place for the losers at the end of the line
A one night, lonesome cabaret
Meet me down where the broken hearted stay
Lie together, tell me lies, baby, I don't mind
I ain't the hurtin' kind

Johnny at the door knows my name
Jukebox in the corner playing Wicked Game with you
Got a table for two in the low light
Just me and you, it's a slow night blue

Heartache is a lonely road
A ramblin' man, just a broke down Romeo
Know a place for the losers at the end of the line
A one night, lonesome cabaret
Meet me down where the broken hearted stay
Lie together, tell me lies, baby, I don't mind
I ain't the hurtin' kind

And it's true
These lyin' eyes, they don't cry when they're through

Heartache is a lonely road
A ramblin' man, just a broke down Romeo
Know a place for the losers at the end of the line
A one night, lonesome cabaret
Meet me down where the broken hearted stay
Lie together, tell me lies, baby, I don't mind
I ain't the hurtin' kind

Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting)

It's getting late, have you seen my mates?
Ma, tell me when the boys get here
It's seven o'clock and I wanna rock
Wanna get a belly full of beer
My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady, she don't care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair

Oh, don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Oh, Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
'Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright, alright, alright, ooh

Well, they're packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out, "She's with me"
A couple of the sounds that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass

Oh, don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
'Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright, alright, alright, ooh

[Guitar break]

Oh, don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
'Cause Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
'Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright, alright, alright, ooh

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday night's alright
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday night's alright
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday night's alright, whoo

Back at Your Door

[Debbii Dawson, Orville Peck, Orville Peck and Debbii Dawson]
I've been losing sleep, I've been losing sleep
Without you next to me, without you next to me
The time moves slowly, lover
Now the sky's gone green, now the sky's gone green
And I should be, and I should be
Somewhere far away, taking cover

[Orville Peck & Debbii Dawson]
But I'm standing outside, bathed in porch light
Asking one more time

[Orville Peck & Debbii Dawson, Orville Peck, Debbii Dawson]
Please, baby, please, I can't take it no more
Clouds are rolling, I need shelter from the storm
Please, baby, please, only God knows what for
I find myself back at your door

[Orville Peck, Debbii Dawson & Both]
I'm sure the dеadbolt's turned, sure the dеadbolt's turned
But baby, if it weren't, baby, if it weren't
I'd come quiet up the staircase
Slip into your arms (Slip into your arms) like I was never gone (I was never gone)
Springsteen static on the airwaves

[Orville Peck & Debbii Dawson]
Now I'm standing outside, bathed in porch light
Asking one more time

[Orville Peck & Debbii Dawson, Orville Peck, Debbii Dawson]
Please, baby, please, I can't take it no more
Clouds are rolling, I need shelter from the storm
Please, baby, please, only God knows what for
I find myself back at your door (Back at your door)

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Orville Peck & Debbii Dawson, Orville Peck, Debbii Dawson]
Please, baby, please, I can't take it no more
Clouds are rolling, I need shelter from the storm
Please, baby, please, only God knows what for
I find myself back at your door (Back at your door)
I find myself back at your door (Back at your door)
Yes, I find myself back at your door (Back at your door)

Chemical Sunset

[ Featuring Allison Russell ]

When the night comes, when the night comes
Will you sing this song?
It's not a blanket, not a cradle, baby
If you think you're able, you need to take this rough medicine

Ooh, when the night comes, when the night come
Will you sing this song?
It's not a blanket, not a cradle, baby
If you think you're able, you need to take this rough medicine

I've been sipping poison
Waiting on the ocean to come and sweep us away
I do a pirouette in the chemical sunset
Come and see me, baby, it's the end of days

I can see it in your eyes, you're not afraid to die
Can I walk by your side?
Dancing on the deck of the Titanic
The glow of the world on fire

Why tell a lie? I feel so alive
I wouldn't try to fight the flames
I do a pirouette in the chemical sunset
Come and see me, baby, it's the end of days

Why tell a lie? I feel so alive
I wouldn't try to fight the flames
I do a pirouette in the chemical sunset
Come and see me, baby, it's the end of days

When the night comes, when the night comes
Will you sing this song?
It's not a blanket, not a cradle, baby
If you think you're able, you need to take this rough medicine

Ooh, when the night comes, when the night come
Will you sing this song?
It's not a blanket, not a cradle, baby
If you think you're able, you need to take this rough medicine

Death Valley High

[ Featuring Beck ]

Those devils drinkin' one Colt 45
Take a walk and a cruise to strip the night
Looks like you got a question in your eyes
You win some, lose some, baby, who's got the time? That's right

Sin City lights
Spin the wheel around and roll the dice
Death Valley high
Gonna let it run like the devil's son tonight

Cheetah chrome and ruby red Naugahyde
I bet my life on snake eyes, I don't mind
Cigarettes burn on my black Levi's
Vegas gonna put my name up in lights tonight

Sin City lights
Spin the wheel around and roll the dice
Death Valley high
Gonna let it run like the devil's son tonight

Casino zombies in a two-way mirror
Branch manager hanging from a chandelier
I got my blackjack, bootleg candy machine
Like a NASCAR uncle on a jumbo screen
Chain smoke, bail bond, 4AM
Wearing Oakley Blades on a velvet water bed
Alligator wingtip, attaché case
Cruising down the strip to a lonely place
Throwing ninja stars at a birthday balloon
Drinking whiskey at the Peppermill on a Monday afternoon

Sin City lights
Spin the wheel around and roll the dice
Death Valley high
Gonna let it run like the devil's son tonight

How Far Will We Take It?

[ Featuring Noah Cyrus ]

I fell asleep in a dream that we once shared
I looked around and I saw that you weren't there
I thought I'd need you when it all broke down
It'll be alright when you come around

I tried to love you, just couldn't break through
No getting used to living without you
'Cause I've been waiting, don't wanna waste it
We're all alone now, how far will we take it?

Being in your arms is what I came here for
I'll close my eyes if you close the door
I felt the fire but couldn't see the flames
You didn't say it, but I know that you felt the same

I tried to love you, just couldn't break through
No getting used to living without you
'Cause I've been waiting, don't wanna waste it
We're all alone now, how far will we take it?

I tried to save you, just couldn't break through
No getting used to living without you
'Cause I've been waiting, don't wanna face it
We're all alone now, how far will we take it?

I tried to love you, just couldn't break through
No getting used to living without you
'Cause I've been waiting, don't wanna waste it
We're all alone now, how far will we take it?

Miénteme

[ Featuring Bu Cuarón ]

Many hearts may be broken, many lovers left behind
With no prayers unspoken, I think I know what's on your mind
When bullets take their aim, baby, I'm not trying to hide
So play it like a game, running like Bonita and Clyde

Miente, querida, que viva, baby
Hurt me, I'm yours tonight
Miénteme, vida, úsame
Venga, güey, come tell me lies
Amor no correspondido es tiempo perdido
Pero miente, querida, por vida miénteme

Me bajo del taxi
Los otros se quedan aquí
Ya vi lo que te hace si te hago esperar
Dijo que no quiere juegos
Pero tú tiraste el dado
Miénteme, pero mírame así
Casi piensa que tenerme es tan fácil
Loco que nos vemos acá, era mi plan real

Miente, querida, que viva, baby
Hurt me, I'm yours tonight
Miénteme, vida, úsame
Venga, güey, come tell me lies
Amor no correspondido es tiempo perdido
Pero miente, querida, por vida miénteme

Si tú te vas, yo me voy contigo
Queda aquí, no veo testigos
Tú no quieres amor y yo no quiero amigos
This is not love in the palm of my hands
I knew it all since we began
I want you to lie to me and I'll lie to you

Miente, querida, que viva, baby
Hurt me, I'm yours tonight
Miénteme, vida, úsame
Venga, güey, come tell me lies
Amor no correspondido es tiempo perdido
Pero miente, querida, por vida miénteme

Papa Was a Rodeo

[ Featuring Molly Tuttle, Molly Tuttle & the Golden Highway ]

I like your twisted point of view, Mike
I like your questioning eyebrows
You've made it pretty clear what you like
It's only fair to tell you now
That I leave early in the morning
And I won't be back till next year
I see that kiss me pucker forming
But maybe you should plug it with a beer 'cause

Papa was a rodeo, mama was a rock 'n' roll band
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand
Home was anywhere with diesel gas, love was a trucker's hand
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
Before you kiss me, you should know
Papa was a rodeo

The light reflecting off the mirror ball
Looks like a thousand swirling eyes
They make me think I shouldn't be here at all
You know, every minute someone dies
What are we doing in this dive bar?
How can you live in a place like this?
Why don't you just get into my car?
And I'll take you away, I'll take that kiss now, but

Papa was a rodeo, mama was a rock 'n' roll band
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand
Home was anywhere with diesel gas, love was a trucker's hand
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
Before you kiss me, you should know
Papa was a rodeo
Pick it, Molly

Now it's fifty-five years later
We've had the romance of the century
After all these years wrestling gators
I still feel like crying when I think of what you said to me

Papa was a rodeo, mama was a rock 'n' roll band
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand
Home was anywhere with diesel gas, love was a trucker's hand
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
Before you kiss me, you should know
Papa was a rodeo

What a coincidence
Your papa was a rodeo too

Midnight Ride

[ Featuring Kylie Minogue, Diplo ]

Double down and let it ride now
No one around, nowhere to go
Turn it up and turn me out, love
Something that says to take it slow
But who's got the time, baby?
Don't walk the line, baby
Seems like the night is ours to know

Let me take you on a midnight ride
Baby, you and I
Ooh, so much we could explore
Pull me closer under moonlit skies
Fire in your eyes
Ooh, you got me burning

Set free, still never tied down
No wind in no way
Do you feel me?
Head and heart are so young
The moon, not much to say
Don't go too fast, don't go too slow
Don't wanna lose us in the dark, please
Take my hand and take us away, ooh, yeah

Let me take you on a midnight ride
Baby, you and I
Ooh, so much we could explore
Pull me closer under moonlit skies
Fire in your eyes
Ooh, you got me burning

Hey babe, something just crossed my mind
Remember when I chased your heart down?
(Uh-huh)
I told you we'd always be together and you swore to me you'd never be bored
I'll follow you to the ends of the earth, darling
(Always?) we'll talk until we get somewhere
(I love the morning sight)
One thing you can always remember
(I can't wait for the moon to rise)
We'll always hope to ride
(There's fire in your eyes)

Let me take you on a midnight ride
Baby, you and I
Ooh, so much we could explore
Pull me closer under moonlit skies
Fire in your eyes
Ooh, you got me burning (got me burning)

Let me take you on a midnight ride
Baby, you and I
Ooh, so much we could explore
Pull me closer under moonlit skies
Fire in your eyes
Ooh, you got me burning

Ever You're Gone

[ Featuring Teddy Swims ]

Been losing track of counting days
Watched the moon over the silver lake
Darling, it's so tired anyway
Tired 'til ever you're gone

Oh, saw you dance at the rodeo
A warm breeze and that song that you wrote
Sometimes it's not about what you know
Not knowing if ever you're gone

This anxious heart of mine
Gets me in and out, in and out of trouble
So many times
And I keep losing pieces
Each time I try
I burned enough bridges to light my way home
Through the darkest night

The ghost in the room hangs out while I'm home
Imagine all you can think all alone
I tell you, time swallows the best of us whole
Thinking since ever you're gone

Wonder if I can feel how I did
Something hangs over my head
I hope it's forgotten instead of just dead
Not dead, still ever you're gone

This anxious heart of mine, oh
Gets me in and out, in and out of trouble
So many times (so many times)
I keep losing pieces
Each time I try
I burned enough bridges to light my way home
Through the darkest night

You're an Asshole, I Can't Stand You (and I Want a Divorce)

[ Featuring Margo Price ]

I woke up this morning
In our king sized bed
Every day you get further away

The silence is louder
Then once you ain't said
But I hear the words you can't say

You're goin' down on love
And everybody knows
Ride behind country wherever you go
If you wanna fly, grab hold of the reins

Get back in the saddle
I'd wait on your horse
You're and asshole, I can't stand you
And I want a divorce

The light is fading
And the day is gone
Nothing much left in this one light time
You borrow your freedom
On the back of the dawn
You're making me look like a rodeo clown

You're goin' out on me
And everybody knows
You'll come out smelling like a rose
Tell me goodbye, grab hold of the reins

Look, I don't care it was forty years ago
When you won high school spelling bee
What are you even talking about?
Not everybody can spell hippopotamus
And that's at least something you can hang on to
I can't even understand you with that thing on your face
Margo, you sure take the O out of country
And you put the L in stupid

Get back in the saddle
Ride away on your horse
You're an asshole, I can't stand you
And I want a divorce

Get back in the saddle
Ride away on your horse
You're an asshole, I can't stand you
And I want a divorce

Where Are We Now?

Had to get the train
From Potsdamer platz
You never knew that
That I could do that
Just walking the dead
Sitting in the Dschungel
On Nürnberger Strasse
A man lost in time near KaDeWe
Just walking the dead

Where are we now?
Where are we now?
The moment you know
You know, you know

Twenty thousand people
Cross Bösebrücke
Fingers are crossed
Just in case
Walking the dead

Where are we now?
Where are we now?
The moment you know
You know, you know

As long as there's sun
As long as there's sun
As long as there's rain
As long as there's rain
As long as there's fire
As long as there's fire
As long as there's me
As long as there's you

Rhinestone Cowboy

[ Featuring Waylon Payne, T.J. Osborne, Fancy Hagood ]

I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain

There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone

Well, I really don't mind the rain
And a smile can hide all the pain
But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way
And I dream of the things I'll do
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe

There'll be a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
