I wake up every morning in a different place and time
I thank god I can live the way I choose
Though at times the road gets lonely I can't settle down
I gotta win cause I can't stand to lose
I was born to be a cowboy full of dreams and broken bones
God it ain't an easy life but it's the one I chose
And I was born to be a champion I can feel it in my soul
Cause every time I win it just keeps driving me on
I broke my neck in frisco and my arm in san antone
I left a part of me in every place I've been
Boy you'd thing I'd learn my lesson give it up and go back home
But I can't quit the will to win's to strong
