If I Were A Cowboy

If I were a cowboy
I'd join the rodeo
But I'm scared of horses and I can't dosido

If I were a cowboy
I'd strap on a big long gun
I'd keep the bullets in my shoes 'cause I'd sure hate to shoot someone


Chorus
So take me out across the water
But there's no water here
The desert was an ocean once but it disappeared
And cowboys are so cool
Make no ridicule
[...]


If I were a cowboy
I'd sing songs out on the range
Songs of dark morality about the lonesome death of Jesse James

Chorus

If I were a cowboy
I'd give up the whole wide world
But I'll never be a cowboy 'cause I'm a girl

If I were a cowboy
If I were a cowboy
If I were a cowboy
But I'm a girl
I'm a girl
I'm a girl
