(Rodney Crowell)

She's a rounder I can tell you that

She can sing 'em all night, too

She'll raise hell about the slep she lost

But even cowgirls get the blues



Especially cowgirls, they're the gypsy kind

And need their laid on 'em loose

She's lived to see the world turned upside down

Hitchin' rides out of the blues



But even cowgirls get the blues sometimes

Bound to don't know what to do sometimes

Get this feelin' like she's too far gone

The only way she's ever been



Lonely nights are out there on the road

Motel ceiling stares you down

There must be safer ways to pay your dues

But even cowgirls get the blues



Even cowgirls get the blues sometime

Bound to don't know what to do sometimes

Get this feelin' like she's too far gone

The only way she's ever been



Even cowgirls get the blues sometime

Bound to don't know what to do sometimes

Get this feelin' like the restless wind

The only way she's ever been
