My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys

33. “My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys” was written by Sharon Vaughn.

This song that was made famous by Willie Nelson, transition from childhood dreams, “I grew up a-dreamin’ of bein’ a cowboy”, to the realization that many of our dreams fall short, “Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery / From being alone too long / You could die from the cold, in the arms of a nightmare / Knowin’ well that your best days are gone.”
