Wilder Than The West

I thought I wanted a cowboy
One to take me away
In a field of blue bonnets
Kiss me in the pouring rain
But he takes off when the wind blows
Roots laid down he'll outgrow

He's bound to the great wide open
Leaves me on the front porch late night hopin'

His heart would start settlin'
Put his boots up on the shelf
Wish he'd hop right off the saddle
Give the reins to someone else
Wish that I could be the one to keep the whiskey off his breath
But I can't change a man wilder than the west

He's rough around the edges
A ramblin' man with a heart to break
They warned me all about him
But hell he's a chance I'd take
But the stubborn pride he's made of
Is no match for my love

He's bound to the great wide open
Ropin', ridin', and roamin'

I wish his heart would start settlin'
Put his boots up on the shelf
Wish he'd hop right off the saddle
Give the reins to someone else
Wish that I could be the one to keep the whiskey off his breath
But I can't change a man wilder than the west

I thought by now that I could make him stay
But he's a wanted outlaw makin' his getaway

I thought his heart would start settlin'
Put his boots up on a shelf
Thought he'd hop right off the saddle
Give the reins to someone else
I thought that I could be the one to keep the whiskey off his breath
But who can change a man wilder than the west
