Taylor Swift - cowboy like me (Official Lyric Video) 

Folklore Taylor: rhymes "car again" with "Cardigan" Evermore Taylor: rhymes "way forward" with "pay for it"

This song is criminally underrated

the most fascinating thing about this song is how ts beautifully paralleled "only if they pay for it" (literal money/payment) and "and i know i'll pay for it" (her having to face her consequences).

I STILL can’t get over “Now you hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon. With your boots beneath my bed. Forever is the sweetest con”

Never thought a song titled "cowboy like me" will be so emotional

✨ This song sounds so expensive ✨

THIS AGED LIKE FINE WINE ONE OF THE BEST SONGS ON EVERMORE

I'LL NEVER FORGIVE SWIFTIES FOR MAKING THIS SONG FLOP! THIS IS LITERALLY THE BEST SONG OFF OF EVERMORE ALBUM I-

Me: Wow I've finally almost memorized all of folklore's lyrics Taylor: I'm about to end this mans whole career

I love the way she says "you're a bandit like me" because it sounds like she's smiling there

No no u don't get it, Taylor didn't just write that ''the tennis court was covered up with some 'tent-like thing' coz she didn't know what that word was... The woman is a dictionary mate! She said that coz this is from a con-woman's perspective, pretending to be rich and posh to get rich dates and a fancy life..... So it just fits perfectly!

Everyone is talking about the Babylon line. But I find some other lyrics also really impressive like "but i said dancing is a dangerous game", it makes me think that she's a con artist, she knows exactly how vulnerable people can become once they fall in love, and dancing is an activity that can make people feel so in love.

“Now I’m waiting by the phone like I’m sitting in an airport bar.” When you’re sitting in the airport bar waiting for the boarding to start. Anxious, alerted, not to miss the flight. Listening to every announcement. And the same happens when we’re just falling for someone. Everytime our phone rings we run to it hoping that it’s that person! Alerted, anxious.

This whole album is like tapping us on the shoulder saying: "it's okay I got you."

Why nobody is talking about the guitar solo????? It’s one of the best things of the song

This is what I imagine Taylor's country music would sound like if she released a country album now. I'd love to hear her do country album with this vibe, just once.

"Now you hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon." Beautiful imagery Taylor, just beautiful. The way she not only uses the architectural aspect of things as a simile, but also due to the fact that the existence of the Hanging Gardens has been up to debate make the lyrics even more bittersweet. It's like the speaker is hanging on to the idea of it because if they don't, they'll lose the only thing that makes it real, turning it into just the imagination of the persona.

Teachers: “ NeVeR STaRt A SEntEnCe WitH ANd!” Taylor: “ And the tennis court...” Teachers: 👁👄👁

"But that was all before I locked it down" She sings it in a way that makes you feel like she's absolutely smug about it. There's this feeling, of utter satisfaction when someone is yours, your person. No matter how much other people may want them, none of them can possible have them. Not because you're holding them with a chain, but because they want you to have them, and in return, you want them to have you. This song tells the journey of wanting someone, to reaching them, and to having them. She says how men wanted her and women wanted him, but that was all in the past, that it was before they were each other's. And that feeling definitely deservers a level of smugness. You can't see her face, but you can tell that she's probably smirking while singing this, almost whispering into the mic, before she seals her lock and hold the key.

For me, musically, vocally, and lyrically, this song is perfect

Just the lines "you hang from my lips like the gardens of Babylon" and "forever is the sweetest con" makes this song one of my top 5 on the album

Why does all her songs feel familiar inside? Like it's hers, it's new but somehow it gives the feeling of familiarity. This is just... wow.

this song alone deserves a grammy, im so mad evermore didn't get more nomination this year, to me some of the song are even better than ones on folklore.

The way she pronounces w o r d s in this song is just *chef's kiss* I'm obsessed

Is noone gonna talk about how she rhymed "way forward" with "pay for it"? Truly Brilliant!!!

There is always a track in Taylor’s albums that doesn’t stand out to me at the first hundred listens but slowly becomes my ultimate favorite. It was seven in Folklore and it is this song in Evermore.

This is the classiest song she has ever written

people who call this "weak spot" will never see the gates of heaven!!

when you and your homie plotted to scam sugar daddies but fell for each other instead

“Dancing’s a dangerous game” - Cowboy like me. “I’m not much for dancing but for you I did” - Last kiss

It was my wedding's first dance music. This song is a true gem of this album.. 'I'm never gonna love again', this explains all.

this song will be 2 years old in 3 days and its still my favorite taylor song of all time

other singers: we’re kissing Taylor swift: now you hang from my lips like the gardens of Babylon

cowboy like me is slowly becoming my evermore stan song.

The bridge of this song feels like an amazing plot twist in a quiet movie. I love you Taylor Swift.

This her best song to ever exist. If she doesn’t sing this live during her Eras Tour, I’ll be damned :(

So nobody is talking about this song is about “two con artists fall in love with each other”, and she wrote “Forever is the sweetest con”.

this song makes me want to slow dance with someone in an an empty parking lot in the middle of the night

Coming back here after midnights dropped and i don't think she'll ever write a song as beautiful as this

The pic used for this video fits perfectly. It gives off an expensive, classy vibe much like this song, with it's lush and smooth vocals and arrangement. It might not be a popular choice but this song is one of my favorites from evermore.

The gardens of Babylon line is my ultimate favourite! The gardens were ‘created’ by a fancy ruler for his wife. However, there isn’t any archaeological evidence to suggest it actually existed. So Taylor is alluding to the fact that there is a great love there but it may not be real. Her mind...

does anyone else like this one the best off of evermore? it's so beautiful

this song doesn't click to me the first time i listen to it but it grows on me so fast that it has become my go-to song on evermore. it's really well written and provides a level of comfort that not even the softest blankets could achieve.

Can't believe Swift wrote this song & forgot about it while "now you hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon" still haunts me in the middle of the night.

Am I the only one who felt the sound of this song is so sophisticated. Like all I need is a glass of wine then everything is perfect.

Me: waiting for re-recordings Taylor: how about a brand new album Me: but but.... you didn't give a warning sign Taylor : I gave so many signs

this is literally the best song on evermore and people are sleeping on this.

the most underrated song in the history of all underrated songs of this world

taylor: releases an album my dictionary: it's my time to shine

Damn this song sounds so classy

This song is so underrated. It's a gem for sure. Everything about "cowboy like me" is so special and unique, the lyrics, the melody and even the song structure is so unique and beautiful. This song is about 2 con artists and despite of some melancholy here, it's so calming and the tranquility just hit me and relaxes me. Def. My top 5 from evermore !!!!

This song made me a Taylor Swift fan. Her ability to communicate the human experience into song is special. Evermore was the first album I heard, the maturity in the songs, the heartbreak she can convey was surprising to me. The choice to not always right autobiography was truly a great gift to the music world. The woman has worked so damn hard, this music is a testament to the life she lived, and the heart she has for others. It's been a heartbreaking year for my family and this album was the soundtrack to some of the most felt moments of my life. Everyone can groove to shake it off, but the complexity of emotions that I now see trickled though her albums, well it's always been there. Can't say enough, thank you Taylor for somehow understanding the ache I feel in my chest right now...and how I will know when it's time to go. love.

Who’s over here stressed bc u can’t watch all of these vids at once 🥲

Taylor Swift: Not a lot going on at the moment Also Taylor: This is me lying

evermore has so many songs that make me feel like i'm reading a novel while i listen to them. this one is a great example of it.

2:47 Is the best part of this song and nobody can say otherwise.

MHM SHE DOES HAVE SOME TRICKS UP HER SLEEVE

the country vibes in this song are IMMACULATE.

the Babylon line is obviously utterly gorgeous, but my favourite is “i'm never gonna love again.” so simple, and yet it hits so hard

A few years have passed, and this is still my favorite song of hers. It's just wonderful in every sense... both the lyrics and the melody.

this is the best song in evermore. and y’all are not ready for that conversation.

I can’t believe people are sleeping on this

I cannot get over "and now you hung over my lips like the gardens of Babylon" line. It has an insurmountable emotion to it. Freaking love this song.

And you asked me to dance, but I said, "Dancing is a dangerous game." goshhhhhhhh the words n the way she sings them............ no wonder taylor is always praised for being a lyrical genius😩

"Now you hang from my lips like the gardens of babylon" ART

I can listen to Taylor say "perched" for an hour straight

My favorite Taylor Swift bridge fr

the way she says "dancing is a dangerous game" and "Now you hang from my lips like the gardens of Babylon" just makes me wanna slow dance with someone

If "expensive" was a song, this would be it

9 studio albums into her career and her music is only getting better. my favorite Taylor song

3:18 And that's why I love her music: She may not be the strongest vocally (even though she has improved A LOT in comparison to her first records), but she never fails to paint a beautiful picture! I mean, this lyric alone: "Now you hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon" - absolutely amazing, outstanding!

Taylor: *makes me looking up every second word in a dictionary* Also Taylor: The tennis court was covered in some tent like thing

"Forever is the sweetest con" I FELT THAT.

"forever is the sweetest con" AHHHH

every time she says “and the ladies lunching have their stories about when you passed through town” I get chills I don’t know why but this is my fave TS song🖤

Cowboy Like Me: “ Dancing is a dangerous thing” Out Of The Woods: “We moved the furniture so we could dance, baby like we stood a chance.”

I don’t know why, but when she sings, “perched” everything is right in the world

Taylor didn't wrote "Now you're hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon" just for the scammys to ignore this masterpiece

She foreshadowed Midnights with “eyes full of stars” and “never thought I’d meet you here”

If Folklore was cottagecore, Evermore is her Dark Academia sister 😩👌

I will never understand how this has one of the least views in her album. Such beautiful tune, beautiful lyrics, beautiful voice... and so underrated.

I know I'm way late now but I just had to comment because this is such a beautiful song. And obviously everyone's what there getting from the song can be different. What makes this song so beautiful is that it's a song about two people. Who aren't really lucky in love or maybe more so they felt like they never would be lucky to ever find real love. Or that sadly that they both felt like they didn't deserve love. Like everyone else and somehow they knew when they meet that was going to be it for them. Basically summing up to keep it short two broken people who finally find love with each other. They finally get that and deserve it more than ever Taylor Swift is amazing for this song.

evermore is pure poetry

this song is literally the best song that exists and i can’t explain why

I just love how she pronounce the word "perched"

3:50, either i'll never love another again, or you left and i've lost the ability. literary gold.

This song has something I can’t explain. It’s one of my favorites

Let’s just hope the reason Taylor is releasing albums so quickly is because she can’t wait to write her thirteenth studio album

Us freaking out about Taylor releasing Folklore out of nowhere: Taylor: And I'll do it again * pow* *pow *

This song is so gorgeously smooth and elegant, even champagne problems can't say anything to its face 😫

this song's bridge changed my life

What is so *impressive* about Taylor's last two albums to me is how all the *songs are so similar* in style yet *all sound different.* Every song sounds new but fits the theme. *How does she do it?*

“Dancing’s a dangerous game” - Cowboy Like Me “I’m not much for dancing but for you i did” - Last Kiss

The most underated song in her discography

My favorite song in her discography. “Now you hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon … forever is the sweetest con.” There is no real evidence of the Gardens’ existence. There’s rumors and legends, but there is no concrete proof. He’s hanging from her lips just like the Gardens because, despite of a kiss or a show of affection, she can’t really be sure if the love is real. What they have is beautiful to her, but could all be just a lie since they are both con artists. She makes this comparison as she recognizes this risk, it takes one to know one. Hence, “forever is the sweetest con” - ‘sweet’ and ‘con’ contrast each other, a sweet lie. Forever could exist with this person, but she knows that the idea of forever could well enough deceive her.

She just cares about making music now, no popularity, no business, no making money mindset. She has found peace and love in her life. I'm so happy for you Taylor :) You're legendary

Unpopular opinion: THIS IS THE BEST SONG IN EVERMORE

Taylor cursing is so soothing. I'm never gonna shut up about it

My favorite line "forever is the sweetest con"!

Who else just woke up and is immediately listening through the whole Taylor album?
