Same Ol' Story

Yeah, we're ridin' 'cross the plains, racin' for the mountains
The wind's at my back, I am headed for the sun
There's Indians to the left, cowboys to the right
Flying arrows, speedin' bullets keep you up at night

It's the same old story
It's written in the stars above
'Cause it's the same old story
Same old glory and the same old love

We're crawlin' through the desert on our hands and knees
Searchin' for the shade, prayin' for a breeze
We're burnin' in the south sun, freezin' in the north
Catch you in between and toss you back and forth

It's the same old story
It's written in the stars above
Yeah, it's the same old story
Same old glory and the same old love

Yeah, that mean old sack now on a bag of bones and roost
Runnin' through the downpour, my God, they turned us loose
Posse at the front door, bandits at the back
You lock the door behind you and jump back in the sack

It's the same old story
It's written in the stars above
Yeah, it's the same old story
Same old glory and the same old, same old
It's the same old story
There's really nothing we can do
It's the same old story
Written in the stars for you
Just for you
