"I can see you got your eye on this ole cowboy |
|
and I can tell you've never had one for your own |
|
Or you've never been around one |
|
Now you're thinking that you've found one |
|
Well, it might be kind of fun to take him home. |
|
You giggle everytime I say 'Yes, ma'am.' |
|
And I get this feeling that if I held you tight |
|
You'd be seeing his and hers |
|
Buckles, boots, and spurs |
|
But that's a feeling you'll get over overnight. |
|
Chorus: |
|
Cause watcha gonna do with a cowboy |
|
When that ole rooster crows at dawn, |
|
And he's lying there instead |
|
Of gettin out of bed |
|
And puttin on his boots and getting gone? |
|
Watcha gonna do when he says, 'Honey, |
|
I got half a mind to stay'? |
|
Watcha gonna do with a cowboy |
|
when he don't saddle up and ride away? |
|
You see it takes a special kind of woman |
|
To put up with the life a cowboy leads |
|
Cause his boots are always muddy |
|
And his beer drinking buddies |
|
Will camp out on the couch and never leave. |
|
Don't even start to think you're gonna change him |
|
You'll be better off to try to rope the wind. |
|
What he his is what you got |
|
and he can't be what he's not |
|
and honey you can't hide him from your friends. |
|
Chorus |
|
Yeah whatcha gonna do with a cowboy |
|
when he don't saddle up and ride away?" |
