SALTWATER COWGIRL

SaltWater Cowgirl

Batten down the hatches, boys
Hold tight to your boat
'Cuz saltwater cowgirl
Has removed her coat.
Yes, her yellow sou'wester
Is laying on the floor
'Cuz now that the fog's lifted
She's goin' out the door.

Saltwater cowgirl
Will capture a heart or two
And if you're not careful
Next, it could be you.
Her spurs are made of velvet
Her heart's made of gold
And it doesn't matter
If you're young or old.

The sea holds a mirror
Inside of her brown eyes
So don't try to fool her
With your old, silly lies.
She's been around the block
Once or twice before
So try to be prepared
For the slamming of a door.

A saltwater cowgirl
Sleeps restless in the night
She knows you might be leaving
When she turns out the light.
Her horse is always ready
As she holds onto the reins
To sail into the sunset
Saltwater in her veins.
