So You Think You Want a Cowboy?

He said "Howdy Darlin" and he tipped his hat
You thought it was always gonna be like that
The fairy tales sure fade away fast in the real world

Ten comes eleven, then it's 3:00 AM
It's like you spend your whole life waiting on him
He passes out smelling like whiskey again and some other girl

So You Think You Want A Cowboy
Until a cowboy is a what you get
Behind every Stetson hat and horse is heartache and horse shoot

You know they're broke and dirty, drunk and flirty
Look 55 and they ain't even 30
If you're lucky enough some day
He's gonna saddle up and ride away

Oh you think you want a cowboy
Until you get a cowboy

You swore adios and never again
Then you end up at the rodeo with your friends
And you see him ride and you watch him win
And that's all she wrote

Next thing you know you're sitting in his truck
And like let it go your heart is all wrapped up
And he's promising the same old stuff
Believe me I know

So You Think You Want A Cowboy
Until a cowboy is a what you get
Behind every Stetson hat and horse is heartache and horse shoot

You know they're broke and dirty, drunk and flirty
Look 55 and they ain't even 30
If you're lucky enough some day
He's gonna saddle up and ride away

Oh you think you want a cowboy
Until you get a cowboy

They're tall and handsome, good at dancin'
Don't really know a thing about romancing
If you're lucky enough some day
He's gonna saddle up and ride away

Oh you think you want a cowboy
Until you get a cowboy

Girl you think you want a cowboy
Until you get a cowboy
