Story Behind The Song

I love the way some men almost cradle a woman in their arms when they dance. That's what brought on the line, "Cradle me in your arms, cowboy."

Song Description

She has to get out from under a bad relationship, meets Mr. Right, and now they have a baby to whom she sings a L'il Cowboy Lullaby

Lyrics

COWBOY LULLABY
© Chapman, Varner

VERSE Life wasn't supposed to be this way
You do nothing wrong, get clobbered anyway
Got hooked up with a hunk of trash
meaner sober than when he's smashed

PRECHORUS This cowgirl needs a COWBOY LULLABY

CHORUS Cradle me in your arms, Cowboy
Shelter me from all harm, Cowboy
I think you're real, I hope you're true
Gonna stake my heart on you, Cowboy
Tonight I need a COWBOY LULLABY

VERSE I'm so excited I can't sleep at night,
I think I've met my Mr. Right
Said he wants an old-fashioned life
and a down home loving wife

PRECHORUS This cowgirl is his COWBOY LULLABY

CHORUS Cradle me in your arms, Cowboy
Shelter me from all harm, Cowboy
I think you're real, I hope you're true
Gonna stake my heart on you, Cowboy
Tonight I need a COWBOY LULLABY

VERSE Our baby boy keeps me up at night
He kicks and cries, fist curled to fight
But when he looks up in my eyes
My love for him could embrace the skies

PRECHORUS This cowgirl is his COWBOY LULLABY

CHORUS I'll cradle you in my arms, Little Cowboy
Shelter you from all harm, Little Cowboy
Watch you grow brave and true
Stake my heart on you, Little Cowboy
Tonight you need a COWBOY LULLABY

Mmm, mmm, hushaby, lullaby
COWBOY LULLABY
