I wanna be a cowboy's sweetheart
  I wanna learn to rope and ride
  I wanna ride through the plains and the desert
  Out west of The Great Divide
  I wanna hear the coyotes singing
  As the sun sets in the west
  I wanna be a cowboy`s sweetheart
  That's the life I love the best.
  
  I wanna ride a paint
  Move it at a run
  I wanna feel the wind in my face
  A thousand miles away from all
  Movin` in the cowman`s face
  I wanna pillow my head
  Beneath the open sky
  As the sun sets in the west
  I wanna strum my guitar and yodel-le-hee-hee
  That's the life I love the best
