Didn't take long, just a drink and a song
Ain't it kinda funny how it happens that way?
Knew it wasn't right but it didn't feel wrong
But when you're twenty-two, who cares anyway?
Ooh, just another cliché
Ooh, always ridin' away

Cowboys run, chasin' that Sun
She learned real young how to love and let go
'Cause every single time she fell for green eyes
Every single promise was a pony show
Pieces of her heart that she can't get back
In the back of a bronco drivin' too fast
Yeah, the well ran dry
So there ain't no wonderin' why
That cowgirl don't cry
That cowgirl don't cry

Wasn't always that way, though
Used to wear a halo
Till he walked out and he broke it in two
So, she picked up herself
Tough as pink nails
And, hell, what else a girl gonna do?

'Cause cowboys run, chasin' that Sun
She learned real young how to love and let go
'Cause very single time she fell for green eyes
Every single promise was a pony show
Pieces of her heart that she can't get back
In the back of a bronco drivin' too fast
Yeah, the well ran dry
So there ain't no wonderin' why
That cowgirl don't cry
That cowgirl don't cry

Didn't take long, just a drink and a song
Ain't it kinda funny how it happens that way?
Heartbreak hurt, don't it? Rub a little dirt on it
And ain't they all the same?

'Cause cowboys run, chasin' that Sun
She learned real young how to love and let go
Every single time she fell for green eyes
Every single promise was a pony show
Pieces of her heart that she can't get back
In the back of a bronco drivin' too fast
Yeah, the well ran dry
So there ain't no wonderin' why
That cowgirl don't cry
That cowgirl don't cry
That cowgirl don't cry
That cowgirl don't cry
