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 which filled the wind
Calm and rolling in, smelled the rain
Soaked everything
And then the mountains rose up,
Across the great planes
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 ’em strong as any man, lordy
Something you can’t tame, she’s a Mustang
A heart beat of a 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 met 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 ’em strong as any man, lordy
Something you can’t tame, she’s a Mustang
A heart beat of a 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.
Let there be cowgirls
Let there be cowgirls
Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
Make ’em strong as any man, lordy
Something you can’t tame, she’s a Mustang
A heart beat of a 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.
