I remember my childhood On the Texas ranch Where I grew up with a girl Who was the prettiest in the land She was a redhead With sparkling green eyes And a smile that lit up Every pasture and field in sight She's a Texan – tough and strong Rides horses, ropes cattle And competes all day In barrel races She's the queen of the rodeo And I'm a cowboy, her partner from the start Don't you know We grew up together Running wild and free Learning to ride and control cattle Just you and me She was fast And I was strong We were a team No one could beat – all day long She's a Texan – tough and strong Rides horses, ropes cattle And competes all day In barrel races She's the queen of the rodeo And I'm a cowboy, her partner from the start Don't you know Over time our love grew And we were married Now she's my wife And I'm her man We're a perfect match We live on the ranch With the cattle and the horses too It's our home – where we love to be Just you and me She's a Texan – tough and strong She rides horses, ropes cattle And competes all day In barrel racing She's the queen of the rodeo And I'm a cowboy, her partner from the start Don't you know
