If I Was a Cowboy

Ridin' off in the sunset, blue eyes under my Stetson

A little lady on the front porch wishin' my heart would start settling

Big iron hips with the holsters

I'd be lookin' mighty fine on a poster

Wanted by the law but the laws don't apply to me

If I was a cowboy, I'd be wild and free

Rollin' around these towns like tumbleweeds

I'd be a legend at loving and leaving

Nipping on a whiskey and numbing up my feelings

You thought the West was wild but you ain't saddled up with me

If I was a cowboy, I'd be the queen

Sittin' pretty on the prairie, baby, I'm your huckleberry, let me hold ya

This six-gun sugar's got a hairpin trigger, like I told ya

And this dove never really gets lonesome

I never begged, never borrowed but I stole some

Wanted by the law but the laws don't apply to me, baby

If I was a cowboy, I'd be wild and free

Rollin' around these towns like tumbleweeds

I'd be a legend at loving and leaving

Nipping on a whiskey and numbing up my feelings

You thought the West was wild but you ain't saddled up with me

If I was a cowboy, I'd be the queen

So mamas if your daughters grow up

To be cowboys, so what

If I was a cowboy, I'd be wild and free (Oh, I'd be free)

Rollin' around these towns like tumbleweeds (Towns like tumbleweeds)

I'd be a legend at loving and leaving

Nipping on a whiskey and numbing up my feelings

You thought the West was wild but you ain't saddled up with me (You ain't saddled up with me)

If I was a cowboy, I'd be the queen, oh

I'd be the queen
