....grow up to be cowboys" ....

LYRICS BELOW.

"Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys,
don't let them pick guitars and drive them old trucks.
Make 'em be doctors and lawyers and such.

Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
'cause they'll never stay home and they're always alone
even with someone they love.

A cowboy ain't easy to love and he's harder to hold.
May mean more to him to give you a song
than silver or gold.
"Budweiser" buckles and soft-faded "Levi's"
and each night begins a new day.
If you can't understand him and he don't die young
he'll probably just ride away.

Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys...(etc).

A cowboy likes smokey old pool-rooms
and clear mountain mornings,
little warm puppies and children and girls of the night.
Them that don't know him won't like him
and them that do, sometimes won't know how to take him.
He's not wrong, he's just different
and his pride won't let him do things
to make you think he's right.

Mammas, don't let your babies....(etc).
