Side Saddle (feat. Gillian Welch)

I was a young cowgirl, just one of the guys

Scrapes on my knees and an eye on the prize

My wild Appaloosa, she stole the show

First place ribbon at the rodeo

I said I don't wanna ride sidesaddle

Sidesaddle, sidesaddle

I just wanna ride bow-legged

Bow-legged like the boys

Well, I took that mare to the cattle drive

And when the trailer boss said that a girl can't ride

I rode sixteen steer, stayed in the saddle

Left the good old boys chewing on gravel

I don't wanna ride sidesaddle

Sidesaddle, sidesaddle

I just wanna ride bow-legged

Bow-legged like the boys

I got my blue jeans on, fit-in stirrups

Now the cowboys cry when I kick the red dirt up

I leave 'em in the dust as the hot sun sets

That's a sight they won't ever forget

Oh, I don't wanna ride sidesaddle

Sidesaddle, sidesaddle

I just wanna ride bow-legged

Bow-legged like the boys

I said I don't wanna ride sidesaddle

Sidesaddle, sidesaddle

I just wanna ride bow-legged

Bow-legged like the boys
