Everybody told me he was a dream
Picture perfect like he stepped right off the silver screen
Said that he would sweep me off my feet

But I'm still standing - No he didn't do it for me
'Cause I don't go for all that wine and dine
With the Ray Ban / Fake tan / Never mind


[Chorus:]
I want a down home / Up-with-the-sun-rise man

A pick-up truck driving / Bull riding / Strong steady hand
I want the Wranglers / Stetson / and all that stuff
I want the real McCoy

I want a Cowboy

I'm tired of talking 'bout it / Wasting my time

On all the cheap talkers - needing me / feeding me lines
Give me somebody who's tender but tough
Simple and honest / Knows a thing or two about love

I've seen enough to know I know what I like
It's the hard working / head turning / rugged type


[Repeat Chorus:]

[Bridge:]

I've seen enough to know - ya know what I mean
Ride me off into the sunset
That's my thing


[Repeat Chorus:]


Give me the Wranglers / Stetson / All that stuff
I want the real McCoy
I want a cowboy

I want a cowboy
