lyrics

You’re Waitin’ on a soulmate
Stuck starin’ at the sun
Don’t dream until it’s too late
Don’t be blind to a good one

There’s cowboy hats on every guy
And boots that really shine
The best that he can buy
Shipped it from online

Had enough line dancin’
Copy cattin’ in the zone
That crap ain’t romancin’
If you’re dancin’ all alone

No you ain’t so crazy
No cheese slid off your cracker
No you’re just plain lazy
So put down the paper
And get off the crapper

You twit and tweet and facebook
Half the time that you drive
The other half it’s makeup
You’re lucky you’re alive

All these boys runnin’ ‘round here
With a beer can in their hand
They’ll booze and use and lose you dear
Won’t even pay the band

A horse is just a scary thing
He’d never really ride
You think you found a cowboy
But he’s empty deep inside

No you ain’t so crazy
No cheese slid off your cracker
No you’re just plain lazy
So put down the paper
And get off the crapper


When the dust has settled
And the stools are on the bar
Your beauty’s all been peddled
And you wonder who you are

Stop lookin’ on a dance floor
To size up who’s a man
He’s churchin’ or he’s workin’
With a callous on his hand

What do I know ‘bout it honey
I just own the stinkin’ place
Only when you smell the money
That you recognize my face

No you ain’t so crazy
No cheese slid off your cracker
No you’re just plain lazy
So put down the paper
And get off the crapper
