VERSE ONE
Just to damn pretty to be in this bar-room alone
You must be out lookin? for some-thing she can?t find at home.
This smoky old tavern ain?t no place for ladies to be.
You?re just askin? for trouble hangin? around cowboys like me.
Ladies are ladies even when they?re in dis-guise
And the look of a lady shows through you blue velvet eyes
You don?t wade in deep water when you don?t even know how to swim,.some
You see Ladies are ladies .and Cowboys are as common as sin
INSTRUMENTAL : PLAY OVER THE LINES BELOW
You don?t wade in deep water when you don?t even know how to swim,
You see Ladies are ladies us Cowboys are as common as sin.
VERSE TWO
Guitars and dobros can?t play your fav-or-ite tune
and the music your after ain?t played in some cheep hotel room.
The places I?d take you sure ain?t no Holiday Inn
You see Ladies are ladies us Cowboys are as common as sin.
CHORUS
Ladies are ladies even when they?re in dis-guise
And the look of a lady shows through you blue velvet eyes
You don?t wade in deep water when you don?t even know how to swim, some
You see Ladies are ladies and Cowboys are as common as sin
TAGG: INSTRUMENTALLY
You don?t wade in deep water when you don?t even know how to swim
You see Ladies are ladies us Cowboys are as common as sin
