[Verse 1] Ive had my picture made with Willie Nelson Stayed in a hotel with a pool Driven through New Mexico where the saguaro cactus grow And I felt really small under Mount Rushmore [PreChorus] And I made it all the way past Austin city limits And maybe for a minute, I got too big for my britches, but [Chorus] Im just a dime store cowgirl Thats all Im ever gonna be You can take me out of the country But you cant take the country out of me, no Cause Im still the girl from Golden Had to get away so I could grow But it dont matter where Im goin Ill still call my hometown home [Verse 2] Slept in a room with the ghost of Gram Parsons Drank some wine I cant afford Went to San Antonio to the River Walk and the rodeo Seen the white cliffs of Dover from the shore [PreChorus] And I kinda fell in love with a Palm Springs trailer park But those California stars could never steal my heart, cause [Chorus] Im just a dime store cowgirl Thats all Im ever gonna be You can take me out of the country But you cant take the country out of me, no Cause Im still the girl from Golden Had to get away so I could grow But it dont matter where Im goin Ill still call my hometown home [Bridge] Im happy with what I got, cause what I got is all I need Just cause it dont cost a lot, dont cost a lot, dont mean its cheap [Outro] Cause Im just a dime store cowgirl Thats all Im ever gonna be You can take me out of the country But you cant take the country out of me, no Cause Im still the girl from Golden Had to get away so I could grow But it dont matter where Im goin Ill still call my hometown home Yeah, Ill still call my hometown home
