Cowboy Dan

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean

He's gonna start a war

He hops in his pickup puts the pedal to the floor

And says "I got mine but I want more"

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean

He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky

And says, "God if I have to die you will have to die"

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

He goes the the reservation drinks and gets mean

I didn't move to the city, the city moved to me

And I want out desperately

Can't do it, not even if sober

Can't get that engine turned over

Standing in the tall grass

Thinking nothing

You know we need oxygen to breath

Everytime you think you're walking you're just moving the ground

Everytime you think you're talking you're just moving your mouth

Everytime you're looking you're just looking down

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean

He's gonna start a war

He hops in his pickup puts the pedal to the floor

And says "I got mine but I want more"

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean

He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky

And says, "God if I have to die you will have to die"

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene

He goes the the reservation drinks and gets mean

I didn't move to the city, the city moved to me

And I want out desperately

Can't do it, not even if sober

Can't get that engine turned over
