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
