lyrics

There's many a strange impulse out on the plains of west Texas
There's many a young boy who feels things he can't comprehend
Well a small town don't like it when somebody falls between sexes
No a small town don't like it when a cowboy has feelings for men

Well I believe in my soul that inside every man there's a feminine
And inside every lady there's a deep manly voice loud and clear
Well a cowboy may brag about things that he's done with his women
But the ones who brag loudest are the ones that are most likely queer

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
Say what did you think all them saddles and boots was about?
There's many a cowboy who don't understand
The way that he feels toward his brother
And inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out

Ten men for each woman was the rule way back when on the prairie
And somehow those cowboys must have kept themselves warm late at night
Well cowboys are famous for getting riled up about fairies
But I'll tell you the reason a big strong man gets so uptight

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
That's why they wear leather and Levi's and belts buckled tight
There's many a cowboy who don't understand
The way that he feels toward his brother
There's many a cowboy who's more like a lady at night

There's always somebody who says what the others just whisper
And mostly that someone's the first one to get shot down dead
When you talk to a cowboy don't treat him like he was a sister
Can't fuck with the lady that's sleepin in each cowboy's head

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
That's why they take speed and drive pick-ups and shoot their big guns
There's many a cowboy who don't understand
The way that he feels toward his brother
There's many a cowboy who keeps quiet about things he's done
There's many a cowboy who keeps quiet about things he's done
