She'll Find Better Things To Do

(Album: Little Ol' Cowgirl - 1992)

She don't see no way around it
He shows every sign of leaving her behind
After three days staying out late
It don't look like he'll be coming home tonight
She wants to cry but pride won't let her
She'll find better things to do
Leaves her key inside the mailbox
With a note that tells that cowboy where to go
It's a two day drive to Denver
With a U-Haul if she doesn't take it slow
She wants to cry but pride won't let her
She'll find better things to do

Don't let Dallas see you crying
She reminds herself as she rolls out of town
When she hits that Texas border she sets pride aside
And lets her tears come down
Then she cries all the way to Colorado
Because it hurts like the devil to be free

Cuts her hair and finds a new job
And her friends all tell her girl you're doing fine
Still the nights get cold and lonely
When that wild west Texas cowboy haunts her mind
She wants to cry but pride won't let her
She'll find better things to do

Don't let Dallas see you crying
She reminds herself as she rolls out of town
When she hits that Texas border she sets pride aside
And lets her tears come down
Then she cries all the way to Colorado
Because it hurts like the devil to be free
