Oh This is So Much Fun By Richard Maxfield 2-1-2000 Cowboys and Drunks all around Come here to lay their money down They louse them self and some self-respect Gaze in a bottle and reflect Boast of things and tell a few lies While mates at home wonder and cry So much innocence has been lost in this place You can see it in ,hard lines in their face How many marriages, how many homes How much true love, set free to roam So many cheats and things not meant Never going home, all the nights not spent How many kids miss Mom or Dad To many kids alone and sad Oh this is so much fun Tomorrow, wondering what they’ve done All the fake smiles, snakes in the grass You can’t find love, not in a glass The years and the beers fly by, they wake alone Dream of a time when they had a home Copyright #RM99R4
