Cowboy Casanova Lyrics
You better take it from me, that boy is like a disease
You’re running, you’re trying, you’re trying to hide
And you’re wondering why you can’t get free
He’s like a curse, he’s like a drug
You get addicted to his love
You wanna get out but he’s holding you down
‘Cause you can’t live without one more touch
He’s a good time cowboy casanova
Leaning up against the record machine
Looks like a cool drink of water
But he’s candy-coated misery
He’s the devil in disguise
A snake with blue eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don’t want to fight
You better run for your life
I see that look on your face
You ain’t hearing what I say
So I’ll say it again
‘Cause I know where you been
And I know how it ends
You can’t get away
Don’t even look in his eyes
He’ll tell you nothing but lies
And you wanna believe
But you won’t be deceived
If you listen to me
And take my advice
He’s a good time cowboy casanova
Leaning up against the record machine
Looks like a cool drink of water
But he’s candy-coated misery
He’s the devil in disguise
A snake with blue eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don’t want to fight
You better run for your life
Run run away
Don’t let him mess with your mind
He’ll tell you anything you want to hear
He’ll break your heart
It’s just a matter of time
But just remember
He’s a good time cowboy casanova
Leaning up against the record machine
Looks like a cool drink of water
But he’s candy-coated misery
He’s the devil in disguise
A snake with blue eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don’t want to fight
You better run for your life
Oh you better run for your life
Oh you better run for your life
You’re running, you’re trying, you’re trying to hide
And you’re wondering why you can’t get free
He’s like a curse, he’s like a drug
You get addicted to his love
You wanna get out but he’s holding you down
‘Cause you can’t live without one more touch
Leaning up against the record machine
Looks like a cool drink of water
But he’s candy-coated misery
He’s the devil in disguise
A snake with blue eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don’t want to fight
You better run for your life
You ain’t hearing what I say
So I’ll say it again
‘Cause I know where you been
And I know how it ends
You can’t get away
Don’t even look in his eyes
He’ll tell you nothing but lies
And you wanna believe
But you won’t be deceived
If you listen to me
And take my advice
Leaning up against the record machine
Looks like a cool drink of water
But he’s candy-coated misery
He’s the devil in disguise
A snake with blue eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don’t want to fight
You better run for your life
Don’t let him mess with your mind
He’ll tell you anything you want to hear
He’ll break your heart
It’s just a matter of time
But just remember
Leaning up against the record machine
Looks like a cool drink of water
But he’s candy-coated misery
He’s the devil in disguise
A snake with blue eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don’t want to fight
You better run for your life
Oh you better run for your life

Well, this song is pretty, pretty obvious. "Carrie" as the narrator (I guess) is obviously trying to forewarn these women who have their sights set on the "Cowboy Casanova" or are being captivated by his charm because she has been in their place before and knows firsthand that this will only end badly for the woman in the situation because the "Cowboy Casanova" only cares about having a good time, he wants to strings attached, but the women want something more and they want to be the one to tame him, but they can't and they only end up in his trap and being manipulated by him. And then the vicious cycle just keeps on repeating itself. Hmm, I almost feel awful for these imaginary women...
its about tony romo when she was dating him
Carrie Underwood never disappoints. This song is about a womanizer who's VERY hard to say no to.
I agree with Paige. This song's about a man who's very, very attractive and impossible to resist even though he's a "player" who just goes around breaking hearts. I heard it today for the first time and I was blown away! Amazing~!
I love this song. I have met alot of these guys.... it is very hard to resist :)
This is a really good song. If this is any indication of how the rest of the album is, it's going to be great. :)
This song has definitely grown on me, but I can't STAND the video. How is it gonna be about a cowboy casanova when he's wearing a freakin' beret in the video? come on now.
Haha, yeah it appears strange, but I think its a nod to the traditional casanova story - which I'm pretty sure was French...at the very least its a European story.

I don't like the music video either.. But I do like the song.. The first time I heard this song it istantly got my attention because of what I've been through. Every line in this song is pretty much true, && everyone says this song reminds me of them because of the guy I was dating..
I think it's particularly appropriate that she sings this song, considering her past with Tony Romo, who has turned out to be quite the "Cowboy" Casanova. And jerk. She and Jessica should sing it as a duet haha
Romo doesn't have blue eyes.

Oh man, I've run into this guy before! I love the section of lyrics that start off the song. She really hits the nail on the head with what that feels like....you other ladies know exactly what I mean!
