I Want To Be A Cowboy's Sweetheart

CYNDI LAUPER · Detour 2016 · Track 11 of 12

Written by Patsy Montana

I wanna be a cowboy's sweetheart I wanna learn to rope and ride I wanna ride o'er the plains and the desert Out west of the Great Divide

I wanna hear the coyotes howling As the sun sinks in the West I wanna be a cowboy's sweetheart That's the life I love the best

I wanna ride Old Paint goin' at a run I wanna feel the wind in my face A thousand miles from the city lights Goin' a cowhand's pace

I wanna pillow my head near the sleeping herd While the moon shines down from above I wanna strum my guitar and yodelay-hee-hee-hoo That's the life that I love

[yodeling]

I wanna be a cowboy's sweetheart I wanna learn to rope and ride I wanna ride o'er the plains and the desert Out west of the Great Divide

I wanna hear the coyotes howling As the sun sinks in the West I wanna be a cowboy's yodelay-hoo-hee That's the life I love the best

[yodeling]
