Chris Ledoux - Wife Behind The Cowboy lyrics

There's lots of pretty cowgirls but this you may not know There's a very special kind at every rodeo Her husband is a cowboy she's his greatest fan She's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man She's hauled water from the crick and got dust all over her clothes She's been so hot she's thought she'd die and so cold she nearly froze She's cooked over an open fire slept under the stars above And you know she'd do it all again just to be with the man she loves She rides the circuit with her man they go from town to town She builds up his confidence when the horses buck him down And she's driven weary miles across an endless land She's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man When he climbs down in the chute and about to start his ride She cheers more than anyone with a special kind of pride And when she hears that whistle blow and she sees her cowboy smile She's glad because he's happy and that makes it all worthwhile There on the move and seldom home but yet she won't complain If her cowboy's back is ackin' she'll rub away the pain Weather things are good or bad right by him she will stand She's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man Oh she's the wife behind the cowboy and the cowboys a lucky man
