Answer: "Should Have Been a Cowboy"

Toby's pal (still in hunting gear) asked a girl to dance. She took one look at him and said no. Not long after she said no to the invitation to dance, a man in a cowboy hat and cowboy boots asked the same girl to dance and she accepted. Toby told his pal that he "should have been born a cowboy".
