Cowboy And The Rose

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 [ guitar ] 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
