Cowboys Fall In Love

You  think that cowboy is all chatter
                             Seems to rattle on about stars

                       Truth is what you think makes no difference
                             He's about to taste first love
                                She has long golden hair

                  We've seen it before when a cowboy gets the wobbles
                 Won't be worth a damn for some time to come I'd guess
                      It won't be long before his head gets to turnin'
                       Be a little short handed 'til she tells him "yes"

                                  Cowboys fall in love
                                Harder than other people
                              You'll hear him say "shucks"
                              He might even say "yes ma'am"
                               First time he's ever been wise
