She said I get outta work about quarter past five
You can pick me up you can gimme a ride
Meet me on the corner where nobody can see
I got a husband who loves me but he don t like me
Take me for a drink at the Medicine Bow
I got a pair of new boots that I m dying to show
Pop in a cassette - head out for Rock Springs
Richard Ford wrote a book - you believe that thing
O Wyoming O Wyoming
You can take me out for dinner if you got it in ya
There s a truck stop I love Little America
When the traffic thins out we ll hit the high desert air
Pull over to the side you won t believe you re anywhere
If you got the balls you can strip off your clothes
Roll in the bauxite like an Eskimo
Eskimo no that wasn t right
I meant like some Indian whose not afraid to turn white
O Wyoming O Wyoming
Promise me by Salt Lake we can turn around
Too much religion for me in that town
Lotta people go south spend the weekend in Denver
Come back with a bumper sticker right on their fender
Born in Cheyenne under the Capitol dome
I got an air stream trailer that I call home
I wear a lot of makeup and I got two cats
That husband of mine never know where I m at
O Wyoming O Wyoming
Now if you were the one I d say screw em all
Can you spare me one of your ol Pall Malls?
The store opens at nine and I gotta be there
Can I borrow your rearview to comb my hair?
If you need a shirt you know where to come
Around Rodeo time it ain t a lotta fun
The tourists ride around shooting fake six shooters
And the city cowgirls with their pushed up hooters
O Wyoming O Wyoming
What I d really like to do is do nothing at all
Watch the Price is Right and old Lucille Ball
Six o clock news I go and fix me a drink
Starving babies make my heart starts to sink
Bosnia and Somalia that s a long way long way off
I know a girl in Jackson Hole who died of a cough
I knew you was wild when you walked in the door
And dancing the two step all over the floor
O Wyoming O Wyoming
Now I like a man who dances nothing wrong with that
And long as he s not wearing no cowboy hat
My husband and I we got an agreement
If he don t catch me he don t throw me on the cement
Believe it or not I get so tired of talking
I better stop smoking or I won t stop hawking
Come on save your money for when you in bad luck
Here s my number - now keep it handy in your truck
O Wyoming O Wyoming
