What the artist means
She's crooning about being a cowboy in the wild west, she was just asked to a dance, little did her lover know that dancing with her was such a dangerous game. She has a few tricks up her sleeve, it takes one to know one, and luckily he's a cowboy like she is. She's crooning about all the shenanigans she's been up to since she came of age. She's riding the beat like a cowboy on his favorite horse, she's describing all the things that she fell in love with in her cowboy lover. She's letting herself let go, she's up for new adventures, because what would the life of a cowboy be without such adventures. She's loving the intimacy, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't battle with those skeletons in both their closets every now and then.
What the song means to me
The song is an ode dedicated to lovers that happen to be in the same profession, which could mean sure disaster, or maybe not. In this case, Taylor is going through every single possible emotion, and it's lovely to see her creating pure magic from such a confusing situation. She's sounding tortured but hopeful, and attracted yet repulsed. The track is a keeper, it's something I could go back to when I'm about to make a tragic mistake, a lot of plaudits for that Ms. Swift. I will give this song a rating of 8/10.
