Subject: Lyr Add: DUST EATIN' COWBOYS (Dave Gordon) From: Stewie Date: 29 Nov 00 - 01:34 AM DUST EATIN' COWBOYS (Dave Gordon) I laid in some wages and went on a spree But whisky and women got the better of me Boys, you might as well shoot for the man in the moon As to shoot for the girls at the Red Dog Saloon They're too hard to handle and too cold to touch And their ten dollar kiss is a little too much The handsome young dandies are always preferred To the dust eatin' cowboys at the rear of the herd There's lots of them hungry old rounders around Who'd give a month's pay for a weekend in town For an armful of gingham and a glass full of foam Now they're hustlin' for a train fare to take them back home But they sold off the prairie for a fist full of change Now there's barbed wire fences all over the range Before they did business, they should have conferred With the dust eatin' cowboys at the rear of the herd Some folks think everyone wants to do right But some people out there ain't tryin' tonight I'd give my right arm and the other one too If I could do better, like I never do And I can't help recallin' when the chapel bell chimes That Peter himself denied Jesus three times If you talk to heaven, put in a good word For the dust eatin' cowboys at the rear of the herd For the dust eatin' cowboys at the rear of the herd
