[Verse 1]

Met her under the big Texas sky

Cowgirl boots and sparkle in her eye

I thought I could be her rodeo king

But she had secret dreams of reigns and saddles

Now she's ridin' into the moonlit night

With a stallion, and I've lost that fight

[Chorus]

Oh cowgirl, why'd you choose that horse

I can't compete with his wild force

[Verse 2]

I planned our future down by the river

But she wanted freedom, made me shiver

She's racing through fields on a stallion's back

Left me wonderin' where I went wrong

One day I'll mend this broken track

For now, I'm just singin' this lonely song

[Chorus]

Oh cowgirl, why'd you choose that horse

I can't compete with his wild force

[Bridge]

I'd learn to gallop if it’d change her mind

Tame the night with a love she can't find

But she's chasing dreams I just can't ride

So it's me and the stars, side by side

[Chorus]

Oh cowgirl, why'd you choose that horse

I can't compete with his wild force
