 (Bon Jovi - from the album "Slippery When Wet")

 It's all the same, only the names will change

 Everyday it seems we're wasted away

 Another place where the faces are so cold

 I drive all night

 Just to {...a wise ass} get back home

 I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride {I ride}

 {Uh, wanted} I'm wanted {yah! dead or alive} dead or alive

 Wanted dead or alive {yah! this song sucks}

 {...man this has got to be boring}

 Sometimes I sleep {uh oh, here we go again},

 Sometimes it's not {man, give it a rest} for days

 And people {you suck} I meet always go their separate ways

 Sometimes I tell the day

 By the bottle that you drink

 And times when you're alone {I told ya you suck} all you do is think

 Cause I'm a cowboy {no you're a dick},

 on a steel horse I ride {bah}

 I'm wanted {yah!} dead or alive

 Wanted {wanted} dead or alive

 {...uh check out that, check out that that...}

 {check out this... }

 Cause I'm a cowboy,

 on a steel horse I ride {yeah ride this you faggot}

 I'm wanted dead or alive

 {yeah, gimme a gun I'll fuckin shoot you}

 Well I walk the streets {what are you a prostitute?},

 a loaded six string on my back

 {yeah I bet you got something else on your back}

 I play for keeps {yah!},

 'cause I might not make it back {make it back}

 I been everywhere {everywhere},

 still I'm standing tall {standing tall, yeah yeah}

 I've seen a million faces

 And I've rocked them all

 {yeah I'll fuckin rock you, you dick}

 I'm a cowboy {...a cowboy}, on a steel horse I ride

 {...I'll steel horse your lucky faggot}

 I'm wanted {wanted} dead or alive {dead or alive}

 Cause I'm a cowboy {cowboy},

 I got the night on my side {night on my side}

 I'm wanted {wanted} dead or alive, and all right {yeah!}

 Dead or alive

 Still I try {don't try me man}

 Dead or alive {alive}

 Dead or alive

 {John man give me a gun} Dead or alive

 Dead or alive, yeah {yeah}

 {Oh man it's over already, we'll miss you. We'd like to }

 {personally thank Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora for their }

 {uh, effort in this project, and personally I've got a }

 {contract out on them for 5,000 dollars, so um I gotta go.}
