| On that very first day, the Lord sat down
|
| And saw fit to say, «Let there be light!»
|
| So He could tell the day time from the night
|
| And then he spoke again,
|
| Felt the wind come rolling in
|
| Smelled the rain
|
| It soaked everything
|
| And then the mountains rose up,
|
| Across the Great Plains
|
| And all the angels up in Heaven started singing,
|
| «All it’s missing is a pretty thing»
|
| Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
|
| Make them strong as any man, Lordy
|
| Something you can’t tame,
|
| She’s a mustang
|
| The heartbeat of the heartland
|
| She’s got a drawl, ya’ll,
|
| Yeah, she’s the salt of the earth that rocks my world.
|
| Let there be cowgirls, come on.
|
| He made me back in '68,
|
| The first time I met her I was nearly eight
|
| And she was ten.
|
| Her name was little KayLynn.
|
| She was born to a farmer who was friends with my father,
|
| I was in love with a sharecropper’s only daughter.
|
| Thought I was in, he made me think again.
|
| But when I turned 16, I thought it couldn’t get worse
|
| I saw her riding on a horse and fell in love so bad it hurt.
|
| Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
|
| Make them strong as any man, Lordy
|
| Something you can’t tame,
|
| She’s a mustang
|
| The heartbeat of the heartland
|
| She’s got a drawl, ya’ll,
|
| Yeah, she’s the salt of the earth that rocks my world.
|
| Let there be cowgirls, ooh, come on.
|
| Ooh, let there be cowgirls
|
| Ooh, let there be cowgirls
|
| Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
|
| Make them strong as any man, Lordy
|
| Something you can’t tame,
|
| She’s a mustang
|
| The heartbeat of the heartland
|
| She’s got a drawl, ya’ll,
|
| Yeah, she’s the salt of the earth that rocks my world.
|
| Let there be cowgirls, ooh
|
| Let there be cowgirls, come on. |
