Dime Store Cowgirl



I've had my picture made with Willie Nelson




Stayed in a hotel with a pool



Driven through New Mexico where the saguaro cactus grow


And I felt really small under Mount Rushmore



[Pre-Chorus]
And I made it all the way past Austin city limits



And maybe for a minute, I got too big for my britches, but

[Chorus]
I'm just a dime store cowgirl




That's all I'm ever gonna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can't take the country out of me, no
Cause I'm still the girl from Golden
Had to get away so I could grow
But it don't matter where I'm goin'
I'll still call my hometown home

[Verse 2]
Slept in a room with the ghost of Gram Parsons



Drank some wine I can't afford
Went to San Antonio to the River Walk and the rodeo





Seen the white cliffs of Dover from the shore

[Pre-Chorus]
And I kinda fell in love with a Palm Springs trailer park



But those California stars could never steal my heart, cause



[Chorus]
I'm just a dime store cowgirl


That's all I'm ever gonna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can't take the country out of me, no
Cause I'm still the girl from Golden
Had to get away so I could grow
But it don't matter where I'm goin'
I'll still call my hometown home

After spending the morning knocking Mount Rushmore off our collective bucket list we headed into Rapid City for lunch.

As we stepped out of the car we were greeted by this mural high up on a building.

Done by Aaron the piece is about 25 ft x 45 ft. and titled “Badlands".
