I don't like to come in here
Can't stand the smokey atmosphere
And that guitar players always out of tune
Don't mean to bother anyone
Looks like you two are havin' fun
But do you really know that stranger next to you
There's a wild side of him I could never tame
I'll bet he's forgotten to mention my name

Chorus 1

But the cowboys mine the cowboys mine
Even ewhen he's steppin' out of line
He might have danced you cross the floor
Bought you a drink or maybe more
That lipstick on his collar may be yours
But make no mistake come closin' time
The cowboys mine

I don't see Billy Bob or Joe
Guess they've already gone back home
He always loses track of time on Friday nights
But he's as sweet as he can be
And he would never cheat on me
No need for me to be the jealous type
I'm not trying to mess up the good time that he's had
But this ol boy can't leave until I pay his tab

Chorus 2

But the cowboys mine the cowboys mine
Even ewhen he's steppin' out of line
He might have danced you cross the floor
Bought you a drink he can't aford
That number in his pocket may be yours
But make no mistake come closin' time
The cowboys mine

Bridge

So girl take your number back he ain't gonna call
Come tomorrow mornin' he won't remember you at all

Repeat Chorus
