Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond Of Each Other

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's many a strange impulse out on the plains of West Texas; There's many a young boy who feels things he don't comprehend Well, small town don't like it when somebody falls between sexes No, small town don't like it when a cowboy has feelings for men [Verse 2] Well, I believe in my soul that inside every man there's a feminine And inside every lady there's a deep manly voice loud and clear Well, a cowboy may brag about things that he does with his women But the ones who brag loudest are the ones that are most likely queer [Chorus 1] Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other What did you think those saddles and boots was about? There's many a cowboy who don't understand the way that he feels towards his brother Inside every cowboy, there's a lady who'd love to slip out [Verse 3] Well, ten men for each woman was the rule way back when on the prairie And somehow those cowboys must have kept themselves warm late at night Cowboys are famous for getting riled up about fairies But I'll tell you the reason a big, strong man gets so uptight [Chorus 2] Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other That's why they wear leather, and Levi's, and belts buckled tight There's many a cowboy who don't understand the way that he feels towards his brother There's many a cowboy who's more like a lady at night [Verse 4] Well, there's always somebody who says what the others just whisper And mostly that someone's the first one to get shot down dead When you talk to a cowboy, don't treat him like he was a sister Don't mess with the lady that's sleepin' in each cowboy's head [Chorus 3] Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other Even though they take speed and drive pickups, and shoot their big guns There's many a cowboy who don't understand the way that he feels towards his brother There's many a cowboy who keeps quiet about things he's done
