Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She is a rounder I can tell you that
She can sing them all night, too
She will raise hell about the sleep she lost
But even cowgirls get the blues
Especially cowgirls, they are the gypsy kind
And need their laid on them loose
She’s lived to see the world turned upside down
Hitchinj rides out of the blues
[Chorus]
But even cowgirls get the blues sometimes
Bound to don’t know what to do sometimes
Get this feelinj like she’s too far gone
The only way she’s ever been
[Verse 2]
Lonely nights are out there on the road
Motel ceiling stare you down
There must be safer ways to pay your dues
But even cowgirls get the blues
[Chorus]
