Cowgirl

When you arrived from the East Into God's country, running from the beasts I noticed your distant fire The following, prowling wolves grew tired I rode with heals of thunder Shielding you away from their hunger Fierce is this cowgirl - yes, I am Strong is this woman - stronger than you know No evil will penetrate her man no more Great granddaughter of the greatest farmer My childhood summers spent in God's country Where real Christians told the truth and prayed before dinner I welcomed this battered cowboy into my homestead And together we rode down the path of righteousness Into God's loving sunset. The trailing dust took with it the lies - good bye.
