Ever since the wind
Came rolling in from the east
To a one horse town
Spurs on the ground, silver screen
From that first tip of a hat
Girls like me got it bad
And that grid drives you wild
He'll rope you with his smile
And back then I wish I knew
Not all dreams come true
And yeah, he'll spin you around that sawdust floor
And yeah, he'll hold your hand out those double doors
He smells sweet like a winter breeze
Lips that taste like whiskey
And he'll leave his leaving boots on your front porch
So don't give your heart to a cowboy
I must've fell asleep
'Cause I'd never seen the bitter end
As that sun set slow
Those credits roll without warning
I guess I'd always thought that
He'd be coming back
He wouldn't leave her all alone
Boy, was I wrong?
And yeah, he'll spin you around that sawdust floor
And yeah, he'll hold your hand out those double doors
He smells sweet like winter breeze
Lips, they taste like whiskey
And he'll leave his leaving boots on your front porch
So don't give your heart to a cowboy
♪
And I might've bought a ticket once or twice
But this is real life
And yeah, he spun me around that sawdust floor
And yeah, he held my hand out those double doors
He smelled sweet like a winter breeze
His lips, they tasted like whiskey
And he left his leaving boots on my front porch
So don't give your heart to a cowboy
I wish I never gave this heart to a cowboy
