Anya Marina Cowboy lyrics

There was a dive bar and a cowboy
Well, not a cowboy really, but he wore the hat
And there was someone who looked like me
At least a little, but not exact

He said, he was gonna take me out proper
You and me are going to the zoo
And I pretended that I was bored
And I could take my eyes off of you

All I had to do was ask
I never knew that this could last
I never knew what I was in for
This town thinks it's got your number
It's unlisted, but they can wonder
And guess and speculate on you and me

Little did I know
Just how far our little car could go
Little did I know
Just how far our little car could go

Said he was damaged over whiskey
Yeah, a kind of Kerouac over cigarettes

Let me guess, you're a gambler, too?
He said, I bet I marry you

All I had to do was look
You were such an open book
How could I miss what I was in for?
Go on ahead and be a loner
Put on your distant look and roam around the west
Like Jack and Neal and Dean

Little did I know, ohh, ohh, little did I see
Little did I know
Just how far our little car could go
Little did I know
Just how far your little car could go

But I drove a thousand miles for you
I even bent the rules, it's true
I swear to everything above
I never knew you at all, my love
