Georgekenneth Martin Poet Lyric

Texas Cowgirl

Tonight every man was quiet 
As they watched her cross the floor
No man spoke a word 
As she tossed her hat beside the door
Her silver handles shined 
Strapped to the legs of her faded jeans
Her shiny spurs jingled 
As she stepped to the bar to down a whiskey

Tonight every pain and heartbreak
Was showing there in her eyes
They all watched her fingers 
As they tapped the iron strapped to her side
Tonight they feared their lives 
As they watched this broken hearted cowgirl
And every man jumped 
When she slammed her glass down on the bar

She was a Texas cowgirl 
A lady with a broken heart
Tonight she was out to get 
Every man that broke her heart
Abused and used by cowboys 
With no love inside their hearts
She was a Texas cowgirl 
A lady with a broken heart

She wiped a tear from her eye 
As she yelled Jed I'm calling you out
Every man watched 
As Jed jumped to his feet then hit the floor
She took a bullet from Billy 
As she fell back against the bar
Then Billy's life came to an end 
As a bullet went deep into his chest

She was a Texas cowgirl 
A lady with a broken heart
Tonight she was out to get 
Every man that broke her heart
Abused and used by cowboys 
With no love inside their hearts
She was a Texas cowgirl 
A lady with a broken heart
