Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cold, gray buildings
Where a hill should be
Steel and concrete
Closing in on me
[Verse 2]
City faces haunt the places I roam alone
Cowboy, cowboy, can't run, can't hide
Too late to fight now, too tired to try
[Verse 3]
Wind once blew free
Now scatters dust to the sky
[Verse 4]
Cowboy, cowboy, can't run, can't hide
Too late to fight now, too tired to try
Written by: Randy Newman
