Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I heard 'em say she's a Calamity Jane when it comes to romancin'
Yeah, I knew the deal, I ain't no Wild Bill, but I still took my chances
So when she took off, I thought I oughta track her down
But through the trail dust, I was smart enough to figure out
[Chorus]
That I ain't no cowboy
I can't just ride right into town
Yeah, high on a white horse
Yeah, six-shoot her old memory down
'Cause he roped her heart, now she's back in his arms
Under those Deadwood stars and now I know
She ain't mine to hold, and I gotta let her go
'Cause I ain't no cowboy
[Verse 2]
I made her smile, yeah, at least for a while, those nights in the city
But a girl like her was made for that red dirt west of that Mississippi
And oh, how it kills me
[Chorus]
That I ain't no cowboy
I can't just ride right into town
Yeah, high on a white horse
Yeah, six-shoot her old memory down
'Cause he roped her heart, now she's back in his arms
Under those Deadwood stars and now I know
She ain't mine to hold, and I gotta let her go
'Cause I ain't no cowboy
No, I ain't no cowboy
[Chorus]
I ain't no cowboy
I can't just ride right into town
Yeah, high on a white horse
Yeah, six-shoot her old memory down
'Cause he roped her heart, now she's back in his arms
Under those Deadwood stars and now I know
She ain't mine to hold, and I gotta let her go
'Cause I ain't no cowboy
[Outro]
Mmm, mmm
No, I ain't no cowboy
Mmm, mmm
No, I ain't no cowboy
