Lyrics
IF I COULD, I WOULD, I’D BE A COWBOY
If I could, I would, I’d be a cowboy
Ridin’ somewhere out on the range
I’d leave behind the dirty grime of this big town
City life can make a man insane
Under the blue sky I’ll be happy
I’ll have myself a ranch and a corral
If you will be my lady of the valley
Honey, I’ll be forever your old pal
And we’ll two-step ‘cross the prairie
Cheek to cheek under the sky
The stars will twinkle like a chandelier
On you and me just dancin’ through the night
So, If I could, I would, I’d be a cowboy
Out on the trail with you by my side
My office chair will be a saddle
My desk will be the never ending plains
At night we’ll cozy round the campfire
We will be at home on the range
