The Cowboy Junkiesare a Canadian alt-country/ alternative rockband, formed by three siblings from the Timmins entertainment family. The group formed in Toronto in 1985. The band's name was simply a random choice as they approached their first ever gig, but it has come to perfectly represent their sound. (Some sources may credit Townes Van Zandt's song "Cowboy Junkies Lament" as the source of the band's name, but that song was written especially for Cowboy Junkies several years after they coined the name.) The Trinity Sessionis perhaps their best known record, recorded live in a single day on a single microphone in a church in Toronto. This album also included a unique cover version of Lou Reed's "Sweet Jane".

If You Were The Woman And I Was The Man Lyrics
Cowboy Junkies
If you were the woman and I was the man
Would I send you yellow roses, would I dare to kiss your hand
In the morning would I caress you like the wind caresses the sand
If you were the woman and I was the man
If I was the woman and you were the man
Would you send me yellow roses, would you dare to kiss my hand
In the morning would you caress me as the wind caresses the sand
If I was the woman and you were the man
If I was the heart and you were the head
Would you think me very foolish, if one day I decided to shed
These walls that surround me, just to see where these feelings led
If I was the heart and you were the head
If I was the woman and you were the man
Would I laugh if you came to me with your heart in your hand
And said I offer you this freely, I will give you all that I can
Because you are the woman and I am the man
