Riding on the range,
I've got my hat - on,
I've got my boots - dusty

I've got my saddle
On my horse
He's calledT-t-t-t-t-trigger
Of course

I wanna be a cowboy
and you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy
and you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy

(woman's voice)

Riding on the chuck wagon,
Following my man
His name is Ted,
Can you believe that?
Camping on the prairie
Plays havoc with my hair
Makes me feel quite dirty,
Though we all do sometimes

I wanna be a cowboy
and you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy
and you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy

Looking like a hero,
Six-gun at my side,
Chewing my tobacco
Out on the horizon,
I see a puff of smoke
Indians on the warpath,
(Indian voice) White man speak-em with forked tongue
Or not
I wanna be a cowboy
and you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy

My name is Ted,
And one day I'll be dead yo yo
