LAUGH LIKE A COWGIRL COMIN' THROUGH THE DOOR is, I hope!, a Country and Western Lyrics...it's got a twang anyway...and I've used the title in a poem or two...I just like that line...it reaches some place in East Texas where I must have been in some other lifetime....maybe in my Dad's, which was on a horse on his familiar western saddle...in East Texas, for certain.....

LAUGH LIKE A COWGIRL COMIN' THROUGH THE DOOR

CHORUS

Laugh like a Cowgirl Comin' through that door
Not afraid to dance just anything
To juke-box tunes all western-sweet
Just dance them Cowboys off their feet
____________________

You got boots all spangled twirlin' bright
That tourquoise-silver belt buckle's shinin'
Your waist is tiny in your denim skirt
Your lips a bright red streak across the night

That cowgirl stetson suits your curls so well
That cowgirl shirt fits cross-your-heart just so
There ain't a feller in this place who just don't want ya
But none of them are gonna' let it show

CHORUS

If I had money I would take you out now
I'd show you bars and stars and pretty things
I'd put a deerskin jacket 'cross your pretty shoulders
I'd make sure you'd have a big ol' diamond ring

But I ain't rich and I ain't wise, girl
I'm just a rodeo clown and I don't see
Just what you're laughin' at across this crowded room
I'm just prayin' that you're pickin' me

CHORUS

Ya know, a cowboy's rarely scared of anything
His home's the saddle - bunkhouse is his bed
He never has a chance ta think of settlin' down
Love ain't got a purchase in his head

But when he sees a gal like you his heart is roped-in
Like some dumb calf who hasn't got a chance
He's gonna be brought down by laughin'
With some fun cowgirl woman in some dance
