I Warned Her

when she walked in
she saw me standing in a dark corner
she could see i'd been around
with my hat pulled down
and scuffed up boots
been kickin up a dusty trail
walkin through hell
but she took a chance
on romance

i warned her
she knew i was a cowboy when we met
but she had her mind set
on taming this wild horse
thought she could break me
what she couldn't see
was my need to run
livin fast
like a bullet shot from a gun
i never wanted to break her heart
but from the start
i warned her

she brought me a beer
and told me her name
she asked me what i was doing here
and i asked her the same
played her game
we laughed
and we danced
and last call came
we hoped in my truck
but she only had herself to blame

i warned her
she knew i was a cowboy when we met
but she had her mind set
on taming this wild horse
thought she could break me
what she couldn't see
was my need to run
livin fast
like a bullet shot from a gun
i never wanted to break her heart
but from the start
i warned her

when the sun came up
i was gone
took off runnin
left the raido on
oh but

i warned her
she knew i was a cowboy when we met
but she had her mind set
on taming this wild horse
thought she could break me
what she couldn't see
was my need to run
livin fast
like a bullet shot from a gun
i never wanted to break her heart
but from the start
i warned her
