‘cowboy like me’ is the Romeo and Juliet story between two bandits or thieves in the night who are “Telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear.” What they find “could be love,” but in the end, “the skeletons in both our closets” may catch up with them. However, they choose each other in the future, and “Forever is the sweetest con.” These two cowboys end up together forever and believe they have conned each other into loving one another. This song seems more suited for the big screen than a love story but is a fun ride for the imagination of two hustlers finding love in each other’s arms.
