Cowboy And The Rose - Chris Ledoux

He’s rugged rough and ready his lady’s soft and pretty

There must be ten years difference in their ages I suppose

But you don’t see any traces or sadness in the faces

Cause together they’re the cowboy and the rose

Now the lone cowboy shy like a piece of humble pie

Sips a cup of coffee at the dinner where he goes

Where he waits on the lady to finish waitin' on the tables

But together they’re the cowboy and the rose

She’s Better Homes and Gardens he’s True West magazine

How they got together the good Lord only knows

But it’s not for a man to question a love that’s made in heaven

And together they’re the cowboy and the rose

Well the lady keeps her distance there ain’t much resistance

From the rednecks and the rounders drinkin' half cups for the road

Cause a man will meet his maker if he ever tried to take her

Or come between the cowboy and the rose

She’s Better Homes and Gardens…

Cause together they’re the cowboy and the rose
