| Her daddy gave her her first pony
|
| Then told her to ride
|
| She climbed high in that saddle
|
| Fell I don’t know how many times
|
| He taught her a lesson that she learned
|
| Maybe a little too well
|
| Cowgirls don’t cry, ride, baby, ride
|
| Lessons in life are gonna show you in time
|
| Soon enough you gonna know why
|
| It’s gonna hurt every now and then
|
| If you fall get back on again
|
| Cowgirls don’t cry
|
| She grew up, she got married
|
| Never was quite right
|
| She wanted a house, a home and babies
|
| He started comin' home late at night
|
| She didn’t let him see it break her heart
|
| She didn’t let him see her fall apart
|
| 'Cause cowgirls don’t cry, ride, baby, ride
|
| Lessons in life are gonna show you in time
|
| Soon enough you’re gonna know why
|
| It’s gonna hurt every now and then
|
| If you fall get back on again
|
| Cowgirls don’t cry
|
| Phone rang early one mornin'
|
| Her momma’s voice, she’d been cryin'
|
| Said it’s your daddy, you need to come home
|
| This is it, I think he’s dyin'
|
| She laid the phone down by his head
|
| Last words that he said
|
| Cowgirl don’t cry, ride, baby, ride
|
| Lessons in life show us all in time
|
| Too soon God will let you know why
|
| If you fall get right back on The Good Lord calls everybody home
|
| Cowgirl don’t cry |
