Let There Be Cowgirls Lyrics

On that very first day, the Lord sat down
And saw fit to say, "let there be light"
So He can tell the daytime from the night
And then He spoke again, we felt the wind
Come rolling in, smelt the rain
And soaked everything, yeah

And then the mountains rose up
Across the great planes
And all the angels up in Heaven started singing
All it's missing is pretty thing

Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
Make 'em strong as any man, Lordy
Something you can't tame, she's a Mustang
The heartbeat of the heartland
She's got a drawl y'all
Yeah, she's the salt of the earth that rocks my world
Let there be cowgirls, come on

He met me back in '68
The first time I met her I was nearly eight and she was ten
Her name was little Kay-Lynn
She was born to a farmer who was friends with my father
I was in love with a sharecropper's only daughter
Thought I was in, he made me think again

But when I turned sixteen
I thought it couldn't get worse
I saw her riding on a horse and fell in love so bad it hurt

Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
Make 'em strong as any man, Lordy
Something you can't tame, she's a Mustang
The heartbeat of the heartland
She's got a drawl y'all
Yeah, she's the salt of the earth that rocks my world
Let there be cowgirls, ooh, come on

Ooh, let there be cowgirls
Ooh, let there be cowgirls

Let there be cowgirls for every cowboy
Make 'em strong as any man, Lordy
Something you can't tame, she's a Mustang
The heartbeat of the heartland
She's got a drawl y'all
Yeah, she's the salt of the earth that rocks my world, soot
Let there be cowgirls
Ooh, let there be cowgirls, come on, woo
