Her Daddy daddy gave her her first pony
Then told her to ride
She climbed high in that saddle
Fell I don't know how many times
TaughtHe taught her a lesson that she learned
Maybe a little too well

Cowgirls don't cry
Ride, cry, ride, baby, ride
Lessons in life are going
to gonna show you in time
Soon enough your you gonna know why
it'sIt's gonna hurt every now and then
If you fall get back on again
Cowgirls don't cry

She grew up
She up, she got married
Never was quite right
She wanted a house, a home and babies
He started coming comin' home late at night
She didn't let him see it break her heart
She didn't let him see her fall apart
'cause Cowgirls'Cause cowgirls don't cry
Ride, cry, ride, baby, ride
Lessons in life are going
to gonna show you in time
Soon enough your you're gonna know why
it'sIt's gonna hurt every now and then
If you fall get back on again
Cowgirls don't cry

Phone rang early one morning mornin'
Her momma's voice, she'd been crying cryin'
Said it's your daddy, youenter deleted
need to come home
This is it, I think he's dying dyin'
She laid the phone down by his head
The lastLast words that he said

Cowgirl don't cry
Ride, cry, ride, baby, ride
Lessons in life show us all in time
Too soon God lets will let you know why
If you fall get right back on
TheGood Lord calls everybody home
Cowgirl don't cry
