| Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys
|
| Don’t let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
|
| Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
|
| Mamas don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys
|
| 'Cause they’ll never stay home and they’re always alone
|
| Even with someone they love
|
| A Cowboy ain’t easy to love and he’s harder to hold
|
| He’d rather give you a song than silver or gold
|
| Budweiser buckles and soft faded levis
|
| And each night begins a new day
|
| If you can’t understand him, and he don’t die young
|
| He’ll probably just ride away
|
| Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys
|
| Don’t let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
|
| Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
|
| Mamas don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys
|
| 'Cause they’ll never stay home and they’re always alone
|
| Even with someone they love
|
| A Cowboy like smoky old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings
|
| Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night
|
| Them that don’t know him won’t like him and them that do
|
| Sometimes won’t know how to take him
|
| He ain’t wrong, he’s just different but his pride won’t let him
|
| Do things to make you think he’s right
|
| Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys
|
| Don’t let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
|
| Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such
|
| Mamas don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys
|
| 'Cause they’ll never stay home and they’re always alone
|
| Even with someone they love |
