《The Cowboy And The Hippie》歌词

[00:00:09] On a highway thru the desert beneath an over pass

[00:00:13] Sat two hikers just watchin' cars go by

[00:00:18] Now one was wearin' sandles with straggly matted hair

[00:00:23] Rose colored glasses for his eyes

[00:00:27] Now the other was a cowboy he'd been down on his luck

[00:00:31] Lost his money at the Tuson rodeo

[00:00:35] And he sat beside what remained of his trusty pickup truck

[00:00:40] And like the hippie now he's thumbin' down the road

[00:00:45] Some folks don't realize that it's a well know fact

[00:00:49] Cowboy's and hippies ain't never got along

[00:00:54] Was it just coincidence or some weird act of fate

[00:00:58] That brought these two together on the road

[00:01:02] They sat there without talking while the morning sun rose high

[00:01:07] When a hot desert breeze commenced to blow

[00:01:11] And the fragrance of the incense and six weeks without a bath

[00:01:16] Finally drifted down and reached the cowboy's nose

[00:01:21] Well man that really did it he couldn't take no more

[00:01:25] And he tied his old bandana around his face

[00:01:29] He said you greasy stinking hippie you'd put a skunk to shame

[00:01:34] Boy you're a discrace to the human race

[00:01:38] Now the hippie just sat there and gave the cowboy a smile

[00:01:42] Said man you don't smell so sweet yourself

[00:01:47] Well I'm not too sure what that green stuff is on your boots

[00:01:50] And on your jeans

[00:01:51] But whew it's enough to make a buzzard belch

[00:02:03] The cowboy said now listen I ain't gonna that that stuff from you

[00:02:07] No long haired freaks gonna talk to me that way get up

[00:02:11] Well the hippie said now hold on man what good's that gonna do

[00:02:16] You know fighting never settles nothing anyway

[00:02:20] Said you know man a lot way we're not block lie

[00:02:25] Want you get down but need skin

[00:02:29] Like two books were differernt covers but the same words inside

[00:02:34] We're both brother to the woman

[00:02:38] Now we both love our freedom and we'll answer to no man

[00:02:42] And you've heard it said to thine own self be true

[00:02:47] We're just a couple of free spirts drifting across the land

[00:02:51] Doing exactly what we want to do

[00:02:56] Said now me I got my things and you you got yours

[00:03:01] And I don't see why we can't get along

[00:03:05] They say the closest thing to freedom is livin' on the road

[00:03:09] In a country were freedom's almost gone

[00:03:14] Well the cowboy he just stood up there and never said a word

[00:03:18] But you know this hippie sure made a lot of sense

[00:03:22] They shook hands and parted as a truck pulled to the side

[00:03:27] And the hippie he went East and I went West
