Ever since the wind
Came rolling in from the east
To a one horse town,
Spurs on the ground silver screen
And that first tip of a hat
Girls like me got it back
And that grit drives you wild
He'll rob 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 wintergreen
And lips that taste like a whiskey
And he'll leave his leaving boots on your front porch
So dont give your heart to a cowboy
I must of fell asleep
'Cause I've never seen the bitter end
And that sun sets slow
Those credits a roll without a 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 a wintergreen
And lips that taste like a whiskey
And he'll leave his leaving boots on your front porch
So dont give your heart to a cowboy
And I might have bought a ticket once or twice
But this shit 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 wintergreen
With lips that tasted like whiskey
And he left his leaving boots on my front porch
So dont give your heart to a cowboy
I wish I'd never gave this heart to a cowboy
