Holding Out For a Cowboy

Done playin' these city boy games

Done chasin' those red-eye planes

And killin' myself to reheat a flame

Done wonderin' who's on his line

And what he's doin' with all his time

And if I'm good enough for him to be mine

I just need a love that's simple

He could wear a Stetson or Resistol

'Cause I'm needin', needin', needin'

Somethin' good down to the core

Who keeps it easy, easy, easy

To love like Sunday morn'

The strong and silent type

Who makes me his first choice

That's why I'm holdin', holdin', holdin'

Out for a cowboy

Blue jeans and ridin' his horse

Rough hands and a real strong boy

Throw in a good woman and he don't need much more

God, I know he exists

So I'll keep on waitin' on him

My salt of the earth, gentleman

I need somethin' to last forever

Like boots and good leather

Yeah, I'm needin', needin', needin'

Somethin' good down to the core

Who keeps it easy, easy, easy

To love like Sunday morn'

The strong and silent type

Who makes me his first choice

That's why I'm holdin', holdin', holdin'

Out for a cowboy

Oh, I'll be damned

Look who's walkin' up to me and

He's even better

Than he was in my dreams

He must've known

That I needed, needed, needed

Someone good down to the core

'Cause he's so easy, easy, easy

To love like Sunday mornin'

Yeah, he's the strong and silent type

He makes me his first choice

So worth holdin', holdin', holdin'

Out for a cowboy

So worth holdin', holdin', holdin'

Out for a cowboy, yeah

(I was holdin' out) Needed, needed, needed

(For my cowboy)

Easy, easy, easy (Easy)

(Holdin', holdin', holdin') It was so worth

Holdin' out for a cowboy
