[Instrumental intro] [Verse 1] She strutted into Abilene, with a spark in her green eyes, Boots kickin’ up the sawdust, under smoky neon skies. She rode bulls like a devil, with a grin that matched my own, We locked eyes by the jukebox, and the night was ours to own. No talk of settlin’ down, just tequila and a dance, “See ya next go-round, cowboy,” she said with a glance. [Chorus] See ya next go-round, cowboy, keep ridin’ free and wild, Two hearts too untamed to tame, like a reckless, runnin’ child. We’ll burn the night together, then we’re gone with the breeze, See ya next go-round, cowboy, livin’ life as we please. [Verse 2] We spun across the dancefloor, to a rowdy Alan Jackson tune, Her laugh was like a wildfire, lightin’ up the moon. She said, “I’m a rambler too, chasin’ buckles, not a home,” We were two peas in a pod, born to roam and roam. No promises, no heartaches, just a night to raise some hell, “See ya next go-round, cowboy,” and I knew her all too well. [Chorus] See ya next go-round, cowboy, keep ridin’ free and wild, Two hearts too untamed to tame, like a reckless, runnin’ child. We’ll burn the night together, then we’re gone with the breeze, See ya next go-round, cowboy, livin’ life as we please. [Verse 3] The arena’s hot in Odessa, where I’ll ride another bull, But her fire’s in my memory, like a tank that’s runnin’ full. I’ll win another buckle, loop it proud upon my belt, But that cowgirl’s grin’s a moment, like no other I’ve felt. We’re kindred spirits driftin’, no regrets to weigh us down, “See ya next go-round, cowboy,” next time I’m in town. [Bridge] Her eyes were like a mirror, showin’ who I’m meant to be, A soul too wild for fences, just as restless as me. So I’ll raise a glass to freedom, and the nights we’ll always share, See ya next go-round, cowboy, ridin’ anywhere. [Chorus] See ya next go-round, cowboy, keep ridin’ free and wild, Two hearts too untamed to tame, like a reckless, runnin’ child. We’ll burn the night together, then we’re gone with the breeze, See ya next go-round, cowboy, livin’ life as we please. [Alternate Chorus] See ya next go-round, cowboy, with the stars as our guide, Two rebels chasin’ glory, on this wild, lonesome ride. We’ll dance another night, then we’ll part without a sound, See ya next go-round, cowboy, till we’re back around. [Outro] See ya next go-round, cowboy, as I ride into the dawn, Chasin’ every buckle, till my restless heart is gone. [instrumental fade out]
