Subject: Lyr Add: Cowboy Man^^
she wore glass slippers
she held her head up high
she had that sparkle at her feet
and that twinkle in her eye

she smiled at me
and as i wondered why
she said "i'm lookin' for a cowboy
to take me for a ride"

chorus:
and he can rope me on the prairie
and he can ride me on the plain
and i will be his cinderella
if he'll be my cowboy man

she said "i got a forty gallon stetson hat
with a thirty-eight foot brim
and we could dance around the outside, baby
until we both fall in"

chorus (pronoun = you)

well, i aint never been no cowboy
heaven knows i try
i'd be ridin' tall in my saddle, honey
with my cinderella by my side

chorus (pronouns = i, her)

lyle, lyle, lyle. *shakes head* what a strange and wonderful man.
