Don't let your boys grow up to be cowgirls
Let them call things they don't like gay
So no one will spread that rumor any more
Or ask why they shaved their legs today

Don't let your boys grow up to be cowgirls
Let them tell their girlfriend from bible study
What they do sometimes alone at home
And see how things get muddy

Don't let your boys grow up to be cowgirls
Let them live with their straight ex-wife 
And their three kids surprised about dad
Let them cry in the bathroom about family life

Please let your boys grow up to be cowgirls
Teach them to pick mountain mint
And wear ten-gallon hats 
Let them ride sidesaddle into the sunset
