Cowboy Quote by Counting Crows

“We couldn't all be cowboys, some of us are clowns. Some of us are dancers on the midway, we roam from town to town. I hope that everybody can find a little flame. Me, I say my prayers and just light myself on fire and walk out on the wire again.” quote by Counting Crows
