Why's that old jukebox keep playin' That sad country song all night long So pour me a lone star Tonight I'll be drinkin' alone, all alone She said we'd never part, she never broke my heart And there ain't a cow in Texas And Wheaties ain't for breakfast Late at night she'll never cross my mind There ain't no rose of San Antone And I can make it on my own These can't be tears in my eyes 'Cause cowboys don't cry Why's that old radio playin' That same country song as I drive along Guess by now she knows that she Was the one who was wrong, all along Bet she's missing me tonight Bet she'd like to make things right And there ain't a cow in Texas And Wheaties ain't for breakfast Late at night she'll never cross my mind There ain't no rose of San Antone And I can make it on my own These can't be tears in my eyes 'Cause cowboys don't cry I said there ain't a cow in Texas And Wheaties ain't for breakfast Late at night she'll never cross my mind There ain't no rose of San Antone I can make it on my own These can't be tears in my eyes 'Cause cowboys don't cry Because cowboys don't cry
