It's Friday night on the East Side

country band at the bar

Same old shit every weekend

everybody's looking the part

I bet most of these boots have probably never seen any dirt

And the ground ain't any softer

If you're wearing a rhinestoned shirt, oh

Everybody wants to be a cowgirl 'til it's 5 in the morning

And it's cold as hell

and the work ain't gonna do itself

Everybody wants to be a cowboy these days

Until it's time to stay, until it's time to stay

Everybody wants the freedom, miles and miles of space

Moving on to the next thing

When thе wind ain't blowing their way

But you know that ain't gonna cut it

It's gonna take a lot of heart

You'rе gonna have to duct tape it back together

When it falls apart, oh

Everybody wants to be a cowgirl 'til it's 5 in the morning

And it's cold as hell

and the work ain't gonna do itself

Everybody wants to be a cowboy these days

Until it's time to stay, until it's time to stay

Everybody wants to be a cowgirl 'til the truck breaks down

In the Cheyenne snow

And you still got a really long way to go

Everybody wants to be a cowboy these days

Until it's time to stay, 'til it's time to stay

Until it's time to stay
