Song Lyrics|Bon Jovi - Wanted Dead Or Alive

Wanted Dead or Alive - By Bon Jovi

"What's that song from Deadliest Catch on the Discovery channel?" That is what I always ask myself. Either that or it's "What is that Bon Jovi song where the lyrics are about being a cowboy and a on a steel horse I ride?" Well, the name of the song is Wanted Dead or Alive.

Bon Jovi has even made it onto VH1's 100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs list.

The Lyrics:

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home

(x 2)

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think

(Chorus)

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces an I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive
I still drive, dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive (x 2)
