[Guitar Solo]

[Spoken Word Intro: Jon Bon Jovi]
For all the cowboys out there

[Verse 1: Jon Bon Jovi]
It's all the same, only the names will change
Every day, it seems we're wastin' away
Another place where the faces are so cold
You drive all night to get back home

[Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi & Audience]
I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
Wanted (Wanted) dead or alive
Wanted (Wanted dead or alive)
Yeah

[Verse 2: Jon Bon Jovi]
Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
People I meet come and then they go their separate ways
Times you tell the day by the bottle that you drink
Times when you're alone, all you do is think

[Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, & Both]
I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
Wanted (Wanted) dead or alive
Wanted (Wanted) dead or alive
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, & Both]
I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
Wanted (Wanted) dead or alive

[Verse 3: Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, & Both]
But I walk the streets, I got my guitar on my back
I play everyday for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
Lord, I been everywhere, oh yeah, and I'm standin' tall
Me? I've seen a million faces, yes I have, and I've rocked them all

[Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, & Both]
'Cause I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse, I ride, yeah, yeah, yeah
Wanted (Wanted) dead or alive

And I'm a cowboy
I got the night on my side (Ooh-hoo)
Wanted (Wanted) dead or alive

[Outro: Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, & Both]
And I ride (And I ride), dead or alive
I will drive (I still drive), dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
