๐Ÿ“œ Lyrics

Thank you
I have to do this by myself

The legs on the lady a-walkin'
Was tanned to a dark berry brown
Her body was made like a song to be played
To the tune of a million a pound
She was a wonder of a woman, I reckon
And she's who screwed her head on right
The toast of the world was a long-legged girl
And the cowboy who started the fight

He'd just pulled into town in an old green 1953 Chevrolet pick-up truck
With whiskey bombs all over it and the right front fender falling off
He coasted on into a no-parking zone, got out and took the keys
And chucked 'em down a gutter, turned around and just walked off

He allowed how his time had been wasted
On drinking and running around
He spend half his life searchin' barrooms at night
For the sweetheart that he never found
It was plain from the moment their eyes met
They'd wind up in each other's arms
The lady's young life was laid open that night
And the cowboy drank deep of her charms

Singing "Hey-hi-de-he" from the depths of the sea
To the mountains, so hollering high
He'd found the best one under God's given sun
Yeah, the cowboy got lucky that night

While the angel beside him lay sleeping
He silently thanked God above
For being a kind-hearted father
And blessing his life with her love
For one night of love with that woman
Was more than he knew he deserved
So he found all he had left worth givin'
And he gave all he had left for her

He slid back inside his old Wranglers
And filled up his boots with his feet
While the subways beneath New York City
Screamed through the veins of the street
Yeah, the lady gave up without question
The trophy she saved all her life
Then she curled up beside his old weather-worn hide
When the cowboy, he just laid down and died

Hey-hi-de-he, when a whoop through the street
As his soul slowly winged out of sight
The lady was torn from the child being born
And the cowboy found a heaven that night

Thank you
Such a hard to find audience quiet enough to listen to that thing 'cause is a long one
