Promise Me Cowboys

She had golden hair and a pickup truck The girl was pullin' a U-Haul trailer She came home to stay and to change her luck Just to get shed of a blue eyed sailor The girl was pullin' a U-Haul trailer Promises were packed with purpose in mind Just to get shed of a blue eyed sailor Who lied and wasn't the marryin' kind Promises were packed with purpose in mind Cowboys she knew would replace that young salt Who lied and wasn't the marryin' kind Men who rode horses possessed no such fault Cowboys she knew would replace that young salt Then she would be free of men who might row Men who rode horses possessed no such fault She could just smile again and dance real slow The girl was pullin' a U-Haul trailer She came home to stay and to change her luck Just to get shed of a blue eyed sailor She had golden hair and a pickup truck 5/20/2017 For contest Favorite Pantoum for Lara Loo
