Cowboy Town lyrics

I know a woman
Her husband died and he left her with two little children
So she went back to school and she got a degree in business
Yeah, now she owns one
And she taught those kids you can do anything
With the heart of a true believer
Yeah, she's an American dreamer

And I've got a woman
And she waits for me with the light on 'cause she knows I'm coming

Her daddy gave her, her first pony
Then taught her to ride
She climbed high in that saddle
Fell, I don't know how many times
Taught her a lesson that she learned
Maybe a little too well.

Cowgirls don't cry
Ride, baby, ride
Lessons in life are going to show you in time
Soon enough your gonna know why
It's gonna hurt every now and then
If you fall get back on again
Cowgirls don't cry.

She grew up

That anchor man says the fight began somewhere in the Middle East
The world prays for peace
There's a single mom just got laid off when she lost a job
To some foreign hands in some faraway land
Last night in Oklahoma some twister took thirteen
And they're praying that they find the missing three.
God must be busy.

That highway sign went from slow ahead
To traffic's dead

I dropped to my knees in that field on your daddy's farm
Asked you to marry me, all I had to give was my heart
While other kids went diving into swimming holes
You and me dove off into the great unknown
We were barely gettin' by, takin' care of each other
Then I became a daddy; you became a mother
Was an uphill battle nearly every day
Lookin' back I wouldn't have it any other way.

Chorus:

You can buy you a brand new truck
Chrome it all out, jack it way up
You can build you a house way high on a hill
With a pool and a pond and a view to kill
You can make all the money in sight
But you ain't livin' a good life.

'Til you put a girl in it you ain't got nothin'
What's it all worth without a little lovin'?
Put a girl in it, some huggin' and some kissin'
