There's lots of pretty cowgirls but this you may not know
|
There's a very special kind at every rodeo
|
Her husband is a cowboy she's his greatest fan
|
She's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man
|
|
She's hauled water from the crick and got dust all over her clothes
|
She's been so hot she's thought she'd die and so cold she nearly froze
|
She's cooked over an open fire slept under the stars above
|
And you know she'd do it all again just to be with the man she loves
|
|
She rides the circuit with her man they go from town to town
|
She builds up his confidence when the horses buck him down
|
And she's driven weary miles across an endless land
|
She's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man
|
|
When he climbs down in the chute and about to start his ride
|
She cheers more than anyone with a special kind of pride
|
And when she hears that whistle blow and she sees her cowboy smile
|
She's glad because he's happy and that makes it all worthwhile
|
|
There on the move and seldom home but yet she won't complain
|
If her cowboy's back is ackin' she'll rub away the pain
|
Weather things are good or bad right by him she will stand
|
She's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man
|
Oh she's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man
|
