Cowgirls Don't Cry

Her daddy gave her first pony
 Then taught her to ride
 She climbed high in that saddle
 Fell, I don't know how many times
 He taught her a lesson that she learned
 Maybe a little too well
 Cowgirls don't cry
 Ride, baby, ride
 Lessons of life are gonna show you in time
 Soon enough, you're gonna know why
 It's gonna hurt every now and then
 If you fall, get back on again
 Cowgirls don't cry
 She grew up, she got married
 It never was quite right
 She wanted a house, a home and babies
 He started coming home late at night
 She didn't let him see it break her heart
 She didn't let him see her fall apart
 'Cause cowgirls don't cry
 Ride, baby, ride
 Lessons of life are gonna show you in time
 Soon enough, you're gonna know why
 It's gonna hurt every now and then
 If you fall, get back on again
 Cowgirls don't cry
 ♪
 Phone rang early one morning
 Her momma's voice, she'd been crying
 Said, "It's your daddy, you need to come home
 This is it, I think he's dying"
 She laid the phone down by his head
 The last words that he said
 Were, "Cowgirl, don't cry
 Ride, baby, ride
 Lessons of life show us all in time
 Too soon, God lets you know why
 If you fall, get right back on
 The good Lord calls everybody home
 Cowgirl, don't cry"
