I Want To Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart

I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart

I wanna learn to rope and ride

I wanna ride o'er the plains and the deserts

Out west of the great divide

I wanna hear the coyotes howlin'

While the sun sets in the west

I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart

The life I love the best

I wanna ride Old Paint, goin' on a run

I wanna feel the wind in my face

A thousand miles from all the city lights

Go at a cowhand's pace

I want to pillow my head near the sleeping herd

While the moon shines down from above

I want to strum my guitar

Oh, that's the life I love

I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart

I wanna learn to rope and ride

I wanna ride o'er the plains and the deserts

Out west of the great divide

I wanna hear the coyotes howlin'

While the sun sets in the west

I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart

The life I love the best
