High, Wide and Handsome
Down from the great white
north
More than enough and then some
Swept her up on his
own

Tumbleweeds were meant to
Get stuck up on a fence
Heaven must
have sent you
You've got no wire to roll against

Keep her steady
cowgirl
Don't let go of the reigns
You are ready now girl
Never mind
the growin' pains

Worlds out there are waiting
Big and wild as the
sky
No more hesitating
It's now or never, do or die

Keep her
steady cowgirl
Don't let go of the reigns
You are ready now girl
Never
mind the growin' pains

As hard as you imagined
It being without
me
We'll both be wishing it were that easy
Don't give me a pull, give me
some room
When this round up is through, I'll be coming back
home

Wide open spaces
Between these two prairie hearts
Wonderin'
where their place is
In a world so far apart

Keep her steady
cowgirl
Don't let go of the reigns
You are ready now girl
Never mind
the growin' pains

Keep her steady cowgirl
Don't let go of the
reigns
You are ready now girl
Never mind the growin' pains
