Cowboy:
So that’s what they call a family,
Mother, daughter, father, son.
Guess that everything you heard about is true.
So you ain’t got any family.
Well, who said ‘cha needed one.
Ain’t ‘cha glad, nobody’s waitin’ up, for you…?
When I dream!
On my own!
I’m alone.., but I ain’t lonely.
For a dreamer night’s the only time a day….
When the cities finally sleepin’.
And my thoughts begin ta stray!
And I’m, that train, that’s bound for Santa Fe….!
And I’m free!
Like the wind!
Like I’m goanna live forever.
It’s a feeling time can never take away….!
All I need’s a few more dollars.
And I’m out'a here ta stay!
Dreams come true.
Yes they do...
In Santa Fe!!!!
Where does it say you gott'a live an’ die here?!
Where does it say a guy can’t catch a break?!
Why should yaw only take watcha given?!
Why should ya spend yer whole... life livin’,
Trapped where there ain’t no future…
Even at seventeen.
Breakin’ yer back for someone else’s sake?!
If the life don’t seem ta suit cha??
How bout a change of scene??
Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between???

Cowboy:
San..ta… Fe….
Are.. you there….
Do you swear you won’t forget me…?
If I found you, would you let me come an’ stay….?
I ain’t getting’ any younger.
An’ before my diein’ day!
I want space..!
Not just air…!
Let ‘em laugh in my face, I don’t care..!
Save…. a place.
I’ll be there
So that’s what they call a family?
Ain’t cha glad ya ain’t that way?
Ain’t cha glad, ya got a dream called..
Santa Fe.....
