[Verse 1]
She was acting distant
A little bit cold when we talked on the phone
So I drove all night, but that West Texas sunrise lead me home
I stepped into the kitchen
That's when I saw the note she wrote, that said

[Chorus]
"Adios, Cowboy, hope you take care of yourself"
She left her ring by her wine glass
And not much of anything else
No, we're just a come back end game
No, "I'll call you, when I get to my friend's"
No, make it all up 'til you kiss
That's as goodbye, as it gets
She said, "Adios, Cowboy"

[Verse 3]
Guess you could say, I made a few mistakes
Hell, more than a little
'Cause a woman like you
Could use more than some part-time in my head
That's what you left me with

[Chorus]
"Adios, Cowboy, hope you take care of yourself"
She left her ring by the wine glass
And not much of anything else
No, we're just a come back end game
No, "I'll call you, when I get to my friend's"
No, make it all up 'til you kiss
That's as goodbye as it gets
Oh whoa, she said, "Adios, Cowboy"
Whoa-oh
[Bridge]
Used to mean something so different
When I'd hit the road, she'd say

[Chorus]
"Adios, Cowboy" and "Hope you take care of yourself"
She left her ring by the wine glass
And not much of anything else
No, we're just a come back end game
No, "I'll call you, when I get to my friend's"
No, make it all up 'til you kiss
That's as goodbye, as it gets
She said, "Adios Cowboy, Adios Cowboy"
She said, "Adios Cowboy"
