"I told you 'bout living in the U.S. of A

Don't you know that I'm a gangster of love?

Let me tell you people that I found a new way

And I'm tired of all this talk about love

And the same old story with a new set of words

About the good and the bad and the poor

And the times keep on changing, so I'm keepin' on top

Or every bat cat who walks through my door

 

I'm a space cowboy

Bet you weren't ready for that

I'm a space cowboy

I'm sure you know where it's at

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

I was born on this rock

And I've been travelin' through space

Since the moment I first realised

What all you fast-talkin' cats would do if you could

You know I'm ready for the final surprise

There ain't no way around it, ain't nothing to say

That's gonna satisfy my soul deep inside

All the prayers and surveyors

Keep the whole place uptight

While it keeps on gettin' darker outside..."
