How The West Was Won

I rode from Oklahoma on a, trail blazin fire
I met up with a cow hand, and his words soothed my desire
He told me about her, said I wouldn't believe
And I came upon her, I fell right to my knees

How was the west won before I found her
How could her riches be known
How was the west won before I found her
How can I make her my own

I had no direction, no place to go
No plans for the future, no way to know
You were the reason, I'd follow my dreams
I'm not gonna leave here, got to find out what it means

How was the west won before I found her
How could her riches be known
How was the west won before I found her
How can I make her my own

Took all my wages, I bought a place down south
I learned how to rope a steer and I learned how to plow
She takes good care of me, you know, she's one of a kind
I don't know where I'd be, without her by my side

How was the west won before I found her
How could her riches be known
How was the west won before I found her
How can I make her my own
How can I make her my own
How can I make her my own
