Cowboys And Ladies (All My Friends Are Cowboys, 1999)
Johnny Cash: She's the kind of lady you often see walking Dressed in fine linen and lace June Carter: He's the kind of a man who works with his hands You can tell by the look on her face
Johnny: That this lady's quite taken by that weather worn cowboy Though he won't be easy to tame June: She isn't deterred cause the ladies like her The challenge is part of the game
Both: And her mind's made up She willingly joins in the chase He's keeping his distance for now Johnny: But it's only the start of the race
Both: And it might take time But she isn't about to give in Johnny: Somehow she knows all the rules And she needs some losses to win
June: If you could ask him the cowboy might tell you He's noticed her too from afar Johnny: But he can't let it show because he well knows Just how such ladies are
Both: And that cowboys and ladies can never be lovers They're caught in that old tender trap Johnny: And it's easy to be, it's that old tendency To want you never can have
Both: And his mind's made up He willingly leads in the chase He's keeping his distance for now Johnny: But he's keeping his eye on the pace
Both: And it might take time But he knows that she'll never give in Johnny: As long as he treats her this way June: As long as she loses, he wins
