Musgraves, Kacey - Dime Store Cowgirl Lyrics






I've 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

And I made it all the way past Austin city limits
And maybe for a minute, I got too big for my britches, but

I'm just a dime store cowgirl
That's all I'm ever gonna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can't take the country out of me, no
Cause I'm still the girl from Golden
Had to get away so I could grow
But it don't matter where I'm goin'
I'll still call my hometown home

Slept in a room with the ghost of Gram Parsons
Drank some wine I can't afford
Went to San Antonio to the riverwalk and rodeo
Seen the white cliffs of Dover from the shore

And I kinda fell in love with a Palm Springs trailer park
But those California stars could never steal my heart, cause

I'm just a dime store cowgirl
That's all I'm ever gonna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can't take the country out of me, no
Cause I'm still the girl from Golden
Had to get away so I could grow
But it don't matter where I'm goin'
I'll still call my hometown home

I'm happy with what I got, cause what I got is all I need
Just cause it don't cost a lot, don't cost a lot, don't mean it's cheap

I'm just a dime store cowgirl
That's all I'm ever gonna be
You can take me out of the country
But you can't take the country out of me, no
Cause I'm still the girl from Golden
Had to get away so I could grow
But it don't matter where I'm goin'
I'll still call my hometown home

I'll still call my hometown home

  5. R.... H....

    09/02- 2 days till KM, I was quite excited now just mellow. Would be in FL hurricane but sickly family🙏, change of plans KM instead. Yesterday was tramazing got homemus, us all had coffee-terrific. We worked on the yard- 3 women BUT it still needs so much more work. Volunteered to wash/ brush down the rehabilitation habitat horses and clean stalls. I visited my organic friends, re-planted a lot of aloes babies and succulents. My nails are wrecked, the under nail dirt is gone but cuticles and polish oh my oh my. I look at them proudly. I do! I showered myself with Off but my legs are chigger bit up. I was up all night so very itchy. Did lots of yoga in the dark. Someone is thinking about me too cause my nose is itchy and my nose ring came out, it took 3 people to get it back in. Just waiting on my friend to come pick me up, dinner date. I may fall asleep on him. I’m sooooooo fing sleepy. Sometimes you just need different ears when your in life’s mix, just needing perspective. 30% country girl- I want an increase to that percentage.

    I have never been into country music but I absolutely love this lady's music and she's nice to look at as well

  14. A.... C....

    Sunday night ,country music night...though i from india... i love her so much !

  15. H.... ....

    these chords remind me of Blink 182 for sum reason. i mean that in the best way lol

    H.... ....

    Yeah i have thought that myself, like Adams Song.

  16. C.... �....

    2019 ♡ First country singer I love

  17. A.... ....

    People who live in towns with a population over 20,000 DO NOT INTERACT

  18. K.... M....

    I love this song, but it bothers me that she says "drove through New Mexico where Sagauro cactus grow"... being an AZ girl now, we know they only grow here.

    K.... M....

    I’m New Mexican and it probably bother us even more! I wish she would have used something like “where the Green Chile grows”!
    (At least she mentions New Mexico, some Americans forget we exist! Lol)

    I still really love this song though! Reminds me of a Route 66 road trip!

  20. c.... N....

    I’ve been sleeping on Kacey, I’m wide awake now tho 🥰🎧

    c.... N....

    Me 2. Heard of her but rarely hear her songs on radio. What an unexpected pleasure to discover her music.

  21. J.... W....

    Was never a fan of country music, then I realized it I hated the fake country and there was still great country and now Kacey, Miranda Lambert, Midland and of course the classics are pretty much all I listen to.

  22. T.... O....

    "Just cause it don't cost a lot don't mean it's cheap"
    She surprises me with catchy wisdom in each and every song.
    America needs her songwriting.

  23. J.... D....

    I LOVE THIS SONG IN 2018

  24. T.... B....

    I went there

  25. c.... t....

    Country music is worldwide like all good music should be

  34. K.... R....

  35. w.... b....

  45. M.... L....

    I really do love listening to Kacey Musgraves but I love Arizona and we are proud of our Saguaro cacti and it definitely doesn't grow in new mexico. I was a little disappointed but it did ryme well.

    M.... L....

    I’m from New Mexico and yes- we have saguaro lolll

    M.... L....

    AZ is just the knockoff Hollywood version of New Mexico

  46. B.... V....

  47. P.... C....

    Loved it so much!!!!!!!
    Amazing song!!!!!

  48. M.... ....

    Saguaro cacti don't grow in New Mexico, you dumb bitch.

  49. b.... p....

    fuck all those jackass country radio programmers who didnt put this really great song on the radio! why cant you be playing more mordern real country artists like Kacey Musgraves, Sturgill Simpson, Chris Stapleton, Brandy Clark, First Aid Kit, and Jason Isbell on your stations!!!! People love this stuff because its great music!!!! its so much better than all the Ear torturing Bro-country and Country Pop you play on repeat all fucking day! this song would have sound great for the radio and people would have loved it!! well, FUCK YOU ALL AND STOP KILLING COUNTRY MUSIC!!!!!!

  50. t.... 7....

    best song ever it is so amazing

  51. t.... 7....

    best song ever

  53. t.... 7....

    best song ever

    t.... 7....

  54. M.... B....

    Just outstanding. Such a great sound again. Some one stole your cd out of my humvee a few months back. Broke in and took everything that wasnt nailed down. II had to replace it straight away... Just love my Kacey!

  55. M.... b....

    I'm actually from golden and I went to your concert there!!😘😍

  56. s.... ....

    Saguaro cactus grow in Arizona, not New Mexico!

    s.... ....

    they grow in both places

    s.... ....

    Alisha Gomez I've never seen a Saguaro in New Mexico, but okay. :)

    s.... ....

    new mexican and we still love her!!!! please come to Albuquerque Kacey!!!!!!!!!

    s.... ....

    seahorsesage so what, she is such a good singer and I’m sure that the invisible state borders will only let certain things grown within the boundaries. She is awesome you are lame for being so petty about lyrics in a great song.

    s.... ....

    @Alisha Gomez Saguaro do not grow naturally in New Mexico.
    Saying they grow in both places is false.
    You might see saguaro in New Mexico...in someone's yard.
    Where it was planted by the home owner.
    Because otherwise they simply do not grow in New Mexico.

  57. B.... D....

    O M G!!!!! Such a beautiful lady😍😍😍😍😍

  58. R.... G....

    my favorite song rodeo queen by Arion Watson a near second

  59. K.... S....

    Love all of her literally

  60. C.... J....

    This song makes me homesick every time it plays at work. I can't wait until I can move out of this apartment complex and back into the country (and hopefully closer to my family).

  61. R.... C....

    if only saguaro cactuses grew in New Mexico, though...

    R.... C....

    They do

  62. j.... d....

    love this song!

  63. l.... ....

    Pretty, wholesome song <3

  64. A.... C....

    She is so good and this song is probably my favorite....cheers to her

  65. J.... ....

    my favorite song by her <3

  66. C.... W....

    I am from a town very close to Golden, and this is awesome. I love Kacey, and everything she stands for.

    C.... W....

    My grandparents had a ranch house at Holly Lake Ranch in Mineola, I believe it was. I practically grew up in that area as well.

  67. B.... S....

    love this song. reminds me of home

  68. C.... K....

    Alba-Golden!❤️

  69. N.... M....

    your better than jana kramer!!!!!!

  70. N.... M....

    this music and Kacey inspires me to be a singer and songwriter ill be singin country

  71. j.... s....

    I do not care for her. But I like her music

  72. M.... ....

    Great song

  73. C.... s....

    love this song! she has always had a perfect classic country sound 😊 I feel like a lot of people could relate to this song... leaving their home town yet holding on to their roots

  74. a.... c....

    Im not much of a country person, but I love this song so much!!! :)

  75. M.... F....

    I'm not one for country music. I heard Kacey speaking during an NPR interview and I was captured by her positivity and humility, she is such a lovely human being! I tried listening to a couple songs and I was completely surprised at how much I loved her music. <3

  76. C.... ....

    I can't believe i JUST found out she was doing a world tour and she was here in birmingham like a week ago or something like that DX

  77. J.... S....

    I love country music but most of it nowadays aint country. Its CRAP ( country rap ). This girl is COUNTRY and well worth the listen!!

  78. R.... S....

    oh lord who cares where you come from country is nationwide whether you live in big cities to the smallest town in the world. american uk germany China visit nashville tn they will be so welcoming. its the country family no one will judge

  79. R.... B....

    She name checks many iconic US places but why does she mention the White Cliffs Of Dover (from the shore)
    She would be in France then?
    Texas is bigger than France. The coastal ports in Northern France are shitholes, wonder why she would go there? San Antonio YES, Austin YES but Calais? Dunkerque? Yuk!
    Unless it's 'just a song' and the line fitted the verse

    R.... B....

    maybe she's been to france lol. it's a song about remembering your roots no matter how far from home you go

    R.... B....

    +Red Barchetta In an interview she gave she said she was crossing the channel from France to England in a ferry and was blown away by the beauty of the white cliffs at Dover. The song is about still loving home no matter where she has been

  80. M.... B....

    loving country in the UK.

    c2c has opened a huge new genre up to me. all because i started listening to bob harris on radio 2

  81. A.... ....

    She could sing out of the phone book and I'd still listen so talented

  82. J.... A....

    Palm Springs ca!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🌵💛

  83. J.... S....

    I promise kacey if you marry me I will not look at another woman

    J.... S....

    Right?!

    J.... S....

    Jordan Stuckey too late ruston kelly beat u to it.

  84. T.... S....

    Kasey is so pretty and talented.

  85. A.... D....

    Love this song its one of my favorites on her album she is all kinds of awesome

  86. J.... C....

    Saguaro cacti grows in Arizona not New Mexico

    J.... C....

    Uhh yes It does grow in NM

  87. [.... S....

    I remember listening to this in the car. Thanks radio.

  88. F.... ....

    I LOVE this song! It never gets old, and it's so catchy! First it was Biscuits, then this!

  89. M.... M....

    I live in San Antonio. :D

    M.... M....

    me too!

    M.... M....

    Oh crap me too!!!!

  90. f.... ....

    I always feel guilty for loving country so much and not being American.
    I feel like someone is just gonna kick me out like"she doesn't even go here".

    f.... ....

    music is for everyone

    f.... ....

    Country folk don’t care 😊 what bugs me are the Americans who don’t like country music 😂

    f.... ....

    You'll always be accepted by me😊 country is for everyone

    f.... ....

    If they kick ya out, we'll help ya right back in.

    f.... ....

    Watch "Wild Rose"! Great movie, you'd like the themes.

  91. S.... ....

    Love it, greets from Germany!

    S.... ....

    Suplexmaschine my mom is from Germany and I'm from the se town as kacey

  92. G.... P....

    True cow girl Kasey !!

  93. m.... ....

    I stopped listening to country music bc of Taylor Swift/Miley Cyrus etc.... But i just happened to hear this song on TV---and instantly liked it! Not to be dramatic but I can't believe I'm listening to country again...first time in 10 yrs! WOW!

    m.... ....

    @lacrossefan2 insults at 4:45AM? Really? you must be really bored...have a nice day.

    m.... ....

    +lacrossefan2  I know what your saying, but I get what  tramaine1981 means. Those commercial singers kinda dirtied country music for  blood money

    m.... ....

    +tramaine1981 Miley was country?

    m.... ....

    @Alina Vásquez Salinas good point...but that's what she claimed earlier in her career. but, yeah, I beg to differ.

    m.... ....

    You didn’t find the correct mentor or read the right sights. There’s any types of country music out there to suit all needs. Don’t let the mainstream dictate the face of the current music.

  94. B.... M....

    That classic country sound is making a comeback, love that steel guitar!!!!

    B.... M....

    I really want to play pedal steel one day

    B.... M....

    No better day than today!

    B.... M....

    it doesn't matter what you listen to as long u like the beers and the lyrics.

  95. h.... c....

    boooooooooooo

    h.... c....

    wow its hilarious that you haters take the time to write that just to bother someone, sometimes I wonder what goes on it yalls heads

    h.... c....

    I agree with Audrey. So rude! You’re just jealous you can’t sing like that so you decide to be a hater. Lame.

  96. A.... M....

    I missed my chance to see #KaceyMusgraves in Buffalo because of work :( I'll find her somewhere though! Music always finds its way to me!

  97. a.... N....

    IN LOVE !!

  98. a.... ....

    So this is the next single from Pageant Material judging by the photos I saw for the promo for this the video clip is going to look pretty good :)

  99. R.... G....

    She needs to go back to New Mexico. Saguaro cacti only grow in Arizona and Old Mexico

    R.... G....

    Right? She should've said Yucca cactus.

    R.... G....

    Lol us New Mexicans still love her! At least she knows about N.M. Ever since Nashville killed the "Western" in Country & Western, Most "country" musicians probably since think that New Mexico is North Chihuahua or something like that.

    R.... G....

    Rachel Killion we in az still love her as well

    R.... G....

    She's saying "Been to New Mexico, where the Saguaro Cactus grow" as two separate places. Arizona isn't easy to put into a song. lol

  100. P.... C....

    beautiful!
