COWGIRLS NEVER DIE

COWGIRLS NEVER DIE

He kissed her mouth and held her tight
Before he left for work
She waved from the kitchen window
Like it didn't even hurt;
His scent stayed with her all day
Like he'd never said good-bye
She went about her busy life
'Cuz cowgirls never cry.

Sometimes he'd come around again
Just like he'd never left
And she would offer all she had
To give of her own self;
But it wasn't ever quite enough
And he'd tell her those ol' lies
She'd smile when he rejected her
'Cuz cowgirls never cry.

He'd love her & he'd leave her
To him, it was just a game
He chased all the younger ones
But she was his old flame;
He sometimes brought her flowers
Or baked her favourite pie
She always laughed and smiled
'Cuz cowgirls never cry.

Then late one night she heard him
Trying his key in her door
And when he saw she'd shot herself
He found her on the floor;
He held her as he cried and cried
And begged her not to die
But all he heard were these last words:
"Cowgirls never DIE."
