This is a fun song on “what you should be”, based on where you are. That, if you are a cowboy man or a cowboy woman in a cowboy land, well, that’s what you are. It would be silly for ‘us’ to ask you to be something else. A bird is a bird. A fish is a fish. Yet, somehow there is a ‘molding’ pressure to be fashionably consistent with a ‘good’ ideology.
And… sometimes this attempted fashioning is confusing: both for you and for me. It doesn’t feel centered. Or nice.
I like the centering words of “Aren’t you glad that God above.. had the plan. To make the cowgirl woman and the cowboy man”. Yup. So with a swanky beat, and words that are fun, we have ‘Cowboy Man’. Orchestration of the song? I love interesting combinations. To work with the familiar and lean into it a bit of the odd. Sounds that tingle. Enjoy…or question…both are Ok.
Lyrics
Cowboy man in a cowboy land is going to do what cowboys do
Cowboy man in a cowboy land is going to do what cowboys do
Loving tough and being rough and loving cowgirls too
Cowboy man in a cowboy land is going to do what cowboys do
That’s a fact, no changing that, they’re ain’t nothing you can do
Cowboy man in a cowboy land is going to do what cowboys do
Cowgirl in a cowgirl world she’s going to do what cowgirls do
Cowgirl in a cowgirl world she’s going to do what cowgirls do
Loving Life and being right and loving cowboys too
Cowgirl in a cowgirl world she’s going to do what cowgirls do
That’s a fact no changing that, they’re ain’t nothing you can do
Cowgirl in a cowgirl world she’s going to do what cowgirls do
Aren’t you glad that God above He had that plan?
To love the cowgirl woman and the cowboy man
The good cowboy, the good cowgirl will never change
It’s in their blood, It’s in their love
It’s in their name, their joy, cowgirl, cowboy
Aren’t you glad that God above He had that plan?
To love the cowgirl woman and the cowboy man
The good cowboy, the good cowgirl will never change
It’s in their blood, It’s in their love
It’s in their name
Solo
Aren’t you glad that God above He had that plan?
To love the cowgirl woman and the cowboy man
The good cowgirl, the cowboy will never change
It’s in their blood, It’s in their love
It’s in their name
It’s in their blood, It’s in their love
It’s in their name
It’s in their blood, It’s in their love
It’s in their name, their joy, cowgirl, cowboy
