Cowboy Lover
You say you found a man to put a ring on your finger,
Darlin’ don’t you know that he’s a deadbeat ringer,
and when he bought that thing it didn’t cost him at all…
You say he singled you out, and then he told you to linger,
Now you sit at home while he’s out dating a singer,
And you know this, and yet you still come when he calls…
Well, he’s a hard-hearted man using love as a cover,
But one man, you say, is as good as another,
Don’t you know you want a man who was raised right by his mother,
‘Cause there ain’t nothing better than a cowboy lover…
You say he treats you right, he put a rose on your pillow,
But later in the park, you’re ‘neath the weeping willow,
Crying to yourself about your circumstance, once again…
You think his interest in you makes him a mighty fine fellow,
But darlin’ that’s a choice and yours has always been yellow,
The way you see yourself defines your situation and I think it’s a sin…
Well, he’s a hard-hearted man using love as a cover,
But one man, you say, is as good as another,
Don’t you know you want a man who was raised right by his mother,
‘Cause there ain’t nothing better than a cowboy lover…
