Verse 1] I drew my own lines on the road Where nobody told me which way to go A pigeon sat on a broken sign Watching me make up my mind The cars were honking in a foreign tongue But I hummed a song my mother sung Rolled down my window, let in the heat Tasted the dust on the street [Pre-Chorus] I don't need green or red Just a beat in my chest A rhythm I can trust When the world says "stop" [Chorus] Crosswalk cowboy, walk with me Walk with me, walk with me Through the noise and the mystery Crosswalk cowboy, take your time Take your time, take your time I'm rewriting every line [Verse 2] A girl with chalk drew a giant X Said, "That's where you bury your regrets" So I dug a hole with my bare hands And buried all my "should-have-beens" Then she drew a circle big and wide Said, "Now stand inside and decide" I stood there spinning for an hour or two Till I knew what I already knew [Pre-Chorus] I don't need green or red Just a beat in my chest A rhythm I can trust When the world says "stop" [Chorus] Crosswalk cowboy, walk with me Walk with me, walk with me Through the noise and the mystery Crosswalk cowboy, take your time Take your time, take your time I'm rewriting every line [Bridge] If the light never comes I'll dance, I'll dance If I'm the only one I'll chance, I'll chance One step at a time I'll make my own design [Final Chorus] Crosswalk cowboy, walk with me Walk with me, walk with me Through the noise and the mystery Crosswalk cowboy, stay untamed Stay untamed, stay untamed Till I know my own name
