A Cowgirl's Eyes

Look at those eyes, pard, just look at them now.

They’re dark and mysterious but also somehow

They’re laughing and happy and full of such joy

That you might think at first it’s some clever girl ploy

But there ain’t no deception I’ll tell ya that true

Whether they’re dark pools or mountain lake blue

They can flash like a storm that’s about to break bad

Whenever she’s fired up and puts on her mad

They’ll leak a bit sometimes if she’s sad for her man

But they’ll leak when she’s happy. That, I don’t understand!

They’ll sparkle like diamonds in brilliant moonlight

And they’ll shine like a sunrise when she’s filled with delight

If you’re lucky, then someday a pair of those eyes

Will capture your heart, much to your dumb surprise

They’ll be deep and as big as the heavens above

'Cause a cowgirl's eyes hold a whole world full of love.
