Lyrics

City Cowgirl

Where?s those Boots
Like She Still Rides
Dirty Jeans That Seen
Better Shades of Blue
Out In the Long Tall Grass
Lies A Bay And A
Rusty Old Horse Shoe
Oh Oh Goes the Night Air
Ah Ah Goes the Soul
City Cowgirl
Show Me How You Ride
Missin? Those Country Skies
Yeah Whispers
Of An Old Dyin? Life

How Her Heart Longs
For The Meadows So Green
Cold Clean
Crystal Clear Springs
Don?t Know Why
But You Had To Roam
Saw the Other Side
Now it?s Clear
It?s Not Your Home
Oh Goes the Night Air
Oh Ah Goes the Soul

If You Want It
You?d Better Go
Somebody Told You
A Long Time Ago
City Cow Girl
Show Me How You Ride
Missin? Those Country Skies
Yeah Whispers
Of An Old Dyin? Life
Yeah Whispers
Of An Old Dyin? Life
