Even cowgirls get the blues

She's a rounder I can tell you that She can sing 'em all night, too She'll raise hell about the sleep she lost Even cowgirls get the blues

Especially cowgirls, they're the gypsy kind And need their reins laid on loose She's lived to see the world turned upside down Hitchin' rides out of the blue

Chorus: Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes Bound to don't know what to do, sometimes Get this feeling like she's too far gone The only way she's ever been

Lonely nights are out there on the road A motel ceiling stares you down There must be safer ways to pay your dues Even cowgirls get the blues

Chorus: Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes Bound to don't know what to do, sometimes Get this feeling like the restless wind The only way she's ever been
