[Verse 1]
I'm in my ponytail
I know that's the way you like me
Follow me down the trail
Once I get you alone we can do whatever
Let's ride, I'm going South
Let's ride into the sunset
Tonight the spurs are coming out
Settle, enough, right now I'm saying "no" to nothing
[Chorus]
(Hey, cowboy!)
If it a day, if it a night
I don't really care if it, if it, if it
If it just sex, if it ain't love
Come on over here, unzip, unzip, unzip it (Say what?)
Hey, cowboy (Say what?)
I ride it (Say what?)
Keep going wherever I'm telling you to go
If it a day, if it a night
I don't really care if it, if it, if it
(Hey, cowboy!)
Uh (If it, if it, if it)
[Verse 2]
Don't need help climbing up (Oh no)
I'll stay here 'til the morning (Ah-ah)
The braise, gеtting kinda rough
Got you tied up, tonight you ain't going nowhere
Thеre isn't one thing we're leaving out
Let me show what you can dream about
You won't have to stall when I'm not around
Once you go down, get up, get up, do it, do it (Hey!)
[Chorus]
(Hey, cowboy!)
If it a day, if it a night
I don't really care if it, if it, if it
If it just sex, if it ain't love
Come on over here, unzip, unzip, unzip it (Say what?)
Hey, cowboy (Say what?)
I ride it (Say what?)
Keep going wherever I'm telling you to go
If it a day, if it a night (Hey!)
I don't really care if it, if it, if it
(Hey, cowboy!)
[Bridge]
Uh-huh, yeah
Huh, yeah
Huh, yeah
[Break]
Ah-ah
Ah-ah
[Chorus]
(Hey, cowboy!)
If it a day, if it a night
I don't really care if it, if it, if it
If it just sex, if it ain't love
Come on over here, unzip, unzip, unzip it (Say what?)
Hey, cowboy (Say what?)
I ride it (Say what?)
Keep going wherever I'm telling you to go
If it a day, if it a night
I don't really care if it, if it, if it
(Hey, cowboy!)
If it a day, if it a night
I don't really care if it, if it, if it
If it just sex, if it ain't love
Come on over here, unzip, unzip, unzip it (Say what?)
Hey, cowboy (Say what?)
I ride it (Say what?)
Keep going wherever I'm telling you to go
If it a day, if it a night
I don't really care if it, if it, if it (Hey!)
(Hey, cowboy!)
[Outro]
Hey, cowboy!
