Well, I bet your dad never showed you how to cry
So you talk to your ceilings to get you by
Well baby I'll admit it, you put on a good show
But I'm a half joint down and I'm ready to go
Tell me what'll get you dancing on these two left feet
How 'bout I'll give you a smile and a kick drum beat?
I've seen a glimpse of the child that you got inside
When we're on the highway singing to the sky
Maybe someday you'll ask him to stay for a while

Everyone's fighting something
And baby, I know you're tired
Of building that fence so high
So let it fall down tonight
And I know that your boots are muddy
But you can hang 'em up next to mine
You ain't gotta lie
'Cause even cowboys cry

Mama didn't make it easy in a one room house
Now you're seeing all things you had to live without
You keep looking for love but you're scared as hell
You keep finding reasons not to love yourself
And all the walls won't cave when you ask for help, mhh

Everyone's fighting something
And baby, I know you're tired
Of building that fence so high
So let it fall down tonight
And I know that your boots are muddy
But you can hang 'em up next to mine
You ain't gotta lie
'Cause even cowboys cry

All the girls they come along and man, they fall so fast
But you keep finding reasons you can't love them back
And I'll never stop trying to heal your broken past
You say compared to me, they're in white and black
You said all them girls, they're in white and black
