We like boots and saddles
We love girls and guitars
We let romance and passion
Turn our heads and rule our homes
Old bandannas and blue jeans
Campfires burnin' like stars
It's a song about all the things
We live and what we are.

Dancin' cowboys, singin' horses
Gypsy music, ringin' voices
Dancin' cowboys, singin' horses
Gypsy music, songs about love.

We got home in our hearts babe
Got the road in our blood
Got a cowgirl in every single town
Or our name ain't much
We like pistols and steps
Dance halls and cafes
Now you know where we're comin' from
Come and dance the night away.

Dancin' cowboys, singin' horses 
Gypsy music, ringin' voices
Dancin' cowboys, singin' horses
Gypsy music, songs about love.

Yeah, Dancin' cowboys, singin' horses
Gypsy music, ringin' voices
Dancin' cowboys, singin' horses,
Gypsy music, songs about love.

Songs about love.
Songs about love
