Dime Store Cowgirl

I've had my picture made with Willie Nelson

Stayed in a hotel with a pool

Driven through New Mexico where the saguaro cactus grow

And I felt really small under Mount Rushmore

And I made it all the way past Austin city limits

And maybe for a minute I got too big for my britches, but

I'm just a dime store cowgirl

That's all I'm ever gonna be

You can take me out of the country

But you can't take the country out of me, no

'Cause I'm still the girl from Golden

Had to get away so I could grow

But it don't matter where I'm goin'

I'll still call my hometown home

Slept in a room with the ghost of Gram Parsons

And drank some wine I can't afford

Went to San Antonio to the Riverwalk and the rodeo

Seen the white cliffs of Dover from the shore

And I kinda fell in love with a Palm Springs trailer park, but

Those California stars could never steal my heart

'Cause I'm just a dime store cowgirl

That's all I'm ever gonna be

You can take me out of the country

But you can't take the country out of me, no

'Cause I'm still the girl from Golden

Had to get away so I could grow

But it don't matter where I'm goin'

I'll still call my hometown home

I'm happy with what I got, 'cause what I got is all I need

Just 'cause it don't cost a lot, don't cost a lot, don't mean it's cheap

'Cause I'm just a dime store cowgirl

That's all I'm ever gonna be

You can take me out of the country

But you can't take the country out of me, no

'Cause I'm still the girl from Golden

Had to get away so I could grow

But it don't matter where I'm goin'

I'll still call my hometown home

Yeah, I'll still call my hometown home
