I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart
I want to learn to rope and ride
I want to ride o'er the plains and the deserts
Out west of the great divide
I want to hear the coyote's howlin'
As the sun sets in the west
I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart
That's the life I love the best
Yodel a hee, a hee, a hee a
yodel oh-oh-oh-oh
Yodel a hee, Yodel a hee, Yodel a hee
I want to ride ol' paint
get him on a run
I want to feel the wind in my face
A thousand miles from all the city lights
Goin at a cowhand's pace
I want to pillow my head
near the sleeping herd
While the moon shines down from above
I want to strum my guitar and a yodel a dee hee
Oh, that's the life I love
Yodel a hee, a hee, a hee, a
yodel oh-oh-oh-oh
Yodel a hee, Yodel a hee, Yodel a hee
