                 D
They should have put her in the movies
    G
My little country-cutie
           C                              D
She's the reason I believe God made blue jeans
          D
I was a slicker from the city
        G
When I met that little philly
      C                                      D
I Was 6 feet tall til she brought me to my knees

           G
I sold my foreign car for a pick-up truck
          D
I never drink champagne, now it's Jack straight up
         G                                     A
And you better like Hank here or you're outta luck
What's up

Chorus:
             D C         G
She put the boy back in cowboy
     D                      A
Hell I was just a red-neck wannabe
             D C         G
She put the boy back in cowboy
               D            A              D C G
That southern woman made a new man out of me

The transformation was amazing
Even Jesus couldn't save me
Late at night I was such a sight to see
At the rodeo she kissed me
Then said"boy don't get too frisky
If you're lucky you might too step home with me"

Yeah I got the boots above
Was dancing high to get a big
I got a big belt buckle trying to rope a cow
For me the ring of fire is this cool as Johnny Cash
You asked

Chorus

             D
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She's a light one, bonefire
Desired to be high
She got me high high high

Chorus
             D C         G    F
She put the boy back in cowboy
     D                             A
Hell I was just a rednecked wanna be
              D C        G
She put the boy back in cowboy
              D   A
That country woman
             D C         G
She put the boy back in cowboy
     D                             A
Hell I was just a rednecked wanna be
             D C         G
She put the boy back in cowboy
      D               A             D C G
She showed me not to beg your company
              D            A              G
That's how a woman made a new man out of me

She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
