The She Buckaroo by Patsy Montana Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1936

Some gals, they like babies and houses and things
But give me the feel of a horse that has wings
I'll ride him straight up, like all cowboys do
I'm a straight ridin' lassie
A she buckaroo

There's a secret in life
For which I sure hold
I'm pinin' to ride that old strawberry roan
I'll make him hop out like an old kangaroo
I'm a tough ridin' lassie
A she buckaroo

If you make the rodeos
You'll find me right there
Ridin' and ropin'
And wind in my hair
All the prizes they give
Make the he-men feel blue
I'm a prize-winnin' lassie
A she buckaroo
Sure I'm stuck on myself
But what do I care
There's no none around me to give me the air
But I've never walked home from a trip to the zoo
I'm a man-hatin' lassie
A she buckaroo

Someday when I'm ready
I'll ride down the road
I'll rope me a cowpoke
That's never been throwed

I'll hogtie him tight
Til' he swears he'll be true
I'm a man-hatin' lassie
A she buckaroo

I'll throw away my chaps
And get dresses instead
I'll learn to make biscuits
And maybe cornbread
We'll live in a town
I think that'll do
And goodbye to Patsy
The she buckaroo
