I can see you got your eye on this old cowboy And I can tell you've never had one for your own Or you've never been around one Now you're thinkin' that you've found one Well it might be kinda fun to take him home You giggle every time that I say yes ma'am And I get this feelin' if I held you tight You'd be seein' his and hers Buckles boots and spurs But that's a feelin' you'll get over overnight 'Cause what'cha gonna do with a cowboy When that old rooster crows at dawn When he's lyin' there instead of getttin' out of bed And puttin' on his boots and gettin' gone What you gonna do when he says honey I've got half a mind to stay What'cha gonna do with a cowboy When he don't saddle up and ride away You can see it takes a special kinda woman To put up with the life a cowboy leads 'Cause his boots are always muddy And his beer drinkin' buddies They'll camp out on your couch and never leave Don't even start to think you're gonna change him You'd be better off to try and rope the wind What he see is what he's got And he can't be what he's not And honey you can't hide him from your friends What'cha gonna do with a cowboy When he don't saddle up and ride away
