"Cowboys" (to the tune of Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys by Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings)

Lyrics:

Cowboys are easy to love
So I'll be one, too
My family's from Texas
And America lives in my bones

But cowboys are often large white men
At least in the movies
We're from the same place
But don't have the same face
I'm just a girl singin' alone

Papas, please teach your daughters to grow up to be cowboys
Please teach 'em to pick guitars
And drive 'em ol' trucks
Or let 'em be doctors and lawyers and stuff

Papa, please teach your daughter to grow up to be a cowboy
Or else she'll always stay home
And she'll always be alone
Even with the stories she loves
