"Ain't No Cowboy" lyrics

Yeah, I heard 'em say she's a Calamity Jane
When it comes to romancing
Yeah, I knew the deal I ain't no Wild Bill
But I still took my chances
So when she took off I thought I oughta track her down
But through the trail dust I was smart enough to figure out

That I ain't no cowboy
I can't just ride right into town
Yeah, high on a white horse
Yeah, six shoot her old memory down
Cuz he roped her heart now she's back in his arms
Under those Deadwood stars and now I know
She ain't mine to hold and I gotta let her go
Cuz I ain't no cowboy

I made her smile, yeah at least for a while
Those nights in the city
But a girl like her was made for that red dirt
West of that Mississippi
And oh how it kills me

That I ain't no cowboy
I can't just ride right into town
Yeah, high on a white horse
Yeah, six shoot her old memory down
Cuz he roped her heart now she's back in his arms
Under those Deadwood stars and now I know
She ain't mine to hold and I gotta let her go
Cuz I ain't no cowboy

No, I ain't no cowboy

I ain't no cowboy
I can't just ride right into town
Yeah, high on a white horse
Yeah, six shoot her old memory down
Cuz he roped her heart now she's back in his arms
Under those Deadwood stars and now I know
She ain't mine to hold and I gotta let her go
Cuz I ain't no cowboy
