“Cowgirls Don’t Cry” The song I chose to analyze was “Cowgirls Don’t Cry” by Brooks and Dunn.

Adding a serving of the 280-calorie dressing‚ and you’ve got a healthy lunch alternative that comes in at 620 calories.” So even if they get them a so called “healthy meal” without knowing it they are getting themselves or their children an unhealthy meal.
