Cosmic Cowboy, Pt. 1 Lyrics

[00:15.28] Burial grounds and merry go-rounds are all the same to me,
[00:22.37] Horses on posts and kids and ghosts,
[00:25.62] are spirits we 'outta set free
[00:29.42] Them city slicker pickers, they gotta lot of slicker licks than you and me,
[00:36.67] but riding the range and acting strange is where I wanna' be, at.
[00:44.46] I just wanna' be a cosmic cowboy, I just wanna' ride and rope and hoot!
[00:59.14] I just wannna' be a cosmic cowboy,
[01:06.16] a supernatural, country- rockin' galoot.
[01:13.61] Lone star sippin' and skinny- dippin' and steel guitars and stars.
[01:20.86] Just as good as Hollywood and them boogie-woogie bars.
[01:28.08] Gonna' buy me a vest and head out west, my little woman and myself,
[01:34.86] When they come to town, they gonna' gather 'round, and marvel at my little baby's health.
[01:42.55] I just gonna' be a cosmic cowboy, I'm just gonna' ride and rope and hoot!
[01:57.03] I just wanna' be a cosmic cowboy,
[02:04.04] a supernatural, country- rockin' galoot.
[02:35.40] (harmonica, steel guitar break)
[02:40.29] Now big racooons and harvest moons, keep a-rollin' through my mind.
[02:48.14] Home on the range where the antelope play is very hard to find.
[02:54.69] Don't bury me on the lone prarie, I'd rather play there alive, I'm doing my best to keep my little pony in over-drive.
[03:09.43] I just wanna' be a cosmic cowboy,
[03:14.28] (oh that's what I wanna' be)
[03:16.41] I just wanna' ride and rope and hoot!
[03:23.86] I just wannna' be a cosmic cowboy,
[03:30.95] a supernatural, country- rockin' galoot.
[03:37.96] And up his knife away,
[03:40.62] I'm a gonna' shoot!
[03:42.15]
