"Cowboys Are As Common As Sin"
(Max D. Barnes)

Just to damn pretty to be in this barroom alone
You must be out lookin' for something you can't find at home
This smoky old tavern ain't no place for ladies to be
You're just askin' for trouble hangin' around cowboys like me

Ladies are ladies even when they're in disguise
And the look of a lady shows through your blue velvet eyes
You don't wade in deep water when you don't even know how to swim some
You see ladies are ladies 'cause cowboys are as common as sin

Guitars and dobros can't play your favorite tune
And the music your after ain't played in some cheap hotel room
The places I'd take you sure ain't no Holiday Inn
You see ladies are ladies us cowboys are as common as sin

Ladies are ladies even when they're in disguise
And the look of a lady shows through your blue velvet eyes
You don't wade in deep water when you don't even know how to swim some
You see ladies are ladies 'cause cowboys are as common as sin
