| Lyrics |
I knew the stakes were high right from the start,
When she dealt the cards, I bet my heart.
Now I just found a game that I can't play,
And this is where the cowboy rides away.
And my heart is sinking like the setting sun;
Setting on the things I wish I'd done.
It's time to say goodbye to yesterday.
This is where the cowboy rides away.
We've been in and out of love, and in-between,
And now we play the final showdown scene.
And as the credits roll, a sad song starts to play:
This is where the cowboy rides away.
And my heart is sinking like the setting sun;
Setting on the things I wish I'd done.
Oh, the last goodbye's the hardest one to say:
This is where the cowboy rides away.
Oh, the last goodbye's the hardest one to say:
This is where the cowboy rides away.
Lyrics by Sonny Throckmorton and Casey Kelly.
Recorded by George Strait.
This is just another polka, just another polka,
But oh what a girl in my arms.
Am I in heaven since we met?
Is this the Philharmonic playing Romeo and Juliet? No!
Just another polka like any other polka,
But somehow the music has charms.
This is just another polka, but holy schmolka!
Oh, what a girl in my arms.
I'm dancing with an angel, with an angel,
An angel, an angel.
Oh yes I'm dancing with an angel,
That's why the band is sounding better
From the moment that I met her.
'Cause I'm dancing with an angel,
With an angel, an angel, angel.
She's got me dancing like I never thought I could,
Oh Arthur Murray never had it so good.
This is just another polka, just another polka,
But oh what a girl in my arms.
Am I in heaven since we met?
Is this the Philharmonic playing Romeo and Juliet? No!
Just another polka like any other polka,
But somehow the music has charms.
This is just another polka, but holy schmolka!
Oh, what a girl in my arms.
