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
