Lavender Cowboy 歌詞

 

He was only a lavender cowboy

 

The hairs on his chest were two

 

But he wished to follow the heroes

And fight like the he-men do

But he was inwardly troubled

By a dream that gave him no rest

That he'd go with his heroes in action

With only two hairs on his chest

First he tried many a hair tonic

'Twas rubbed in on him each night

But still when he looked in the mirror

Those two hairs were ever in sight

But with a spirit undaunted

 

He wandered out to fight

Just like an old-time knight errant

To win combat for the right

 

He battled for red nellie's honor

 

And cleaned out a holdup's nest

 

He died with his six guns a-smoking

 

With only two hairs on his chest
