[Verse 1]
It's all the same, only the names will change
Every day, ooh, it seems we're wastin' away
Another place where, God, those faces are so cold
You know I'd drive all night if I could get back home

[Chorus]
I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted (Wanted)
Dead or alive
I'm wanted (Wanted)
Dead or alive

[Interlude]
Play

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I sleep (Sometimes it's not for days)
Ooh, the people I meet always go their separate ways
(Sometimes you tell the day) By thе bottle that you drink
(Sometimes you'rе all alone) God, all you do is think

[Chorus]
I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted (Wanted)
Dead or alive
I'm wanted (Wanted)
Dead or alive
[Interlude]
Ride 'em, cowboy
Play that six string

[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted (Wanted)
Dead or alive

[Verse 3]
Now I walk the streets, I got a Stratocaster on my back
You know I'm playing for keeps, mister, I might not make it back
Oh, well, everywhere I've been, don't you know I'm standing tall?
Seen a million faces and I've rocked them all

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a cowboy
And on a steel horse I ride
Wanted (Wanted)
Dead or alive
Just a cowboy (Another cowboy)
I got the night on my side
I'm wanted (Wanted)
Dead or alive
[Post-Chorus]
And I ride (And I ride)
Dead or alive
Oh, I still drive (Still drive)
Hey, dead or alive

[Outro]
Am I dead (Am I dead or alive?)
Or alive? (Dead, dead, dead or alive?)
Dead or alive
Am I dead or alive?
