Cosmic Cowboy (Feat. Willie Nelson, Jerry Jeff Walker, Lyle Lovett & Bruce Robison)

I just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy

Burial grounds and merry go rounds
Are all the same to me
Horses on posts and kids and ghosts
Are spirits we ought to set free
Them city slicker pickers got a lot of slicker licks than you and me
But riding the range and acting strange
Is where I want to be at

I just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy
I just want to ride and rope and hoot
I just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy
Wanna be supernatural country rockin' galoot

Lone star sippin' and skinny dippin' and steel guitars and stars
Are just as good as Hollywood and them boogie woogie bars
I'm gonna buy me a vest and head out West
My little woman and my self
We come to town people gather around
They can't believe my cowboy charm

I just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy
I just want to ride and rope and hoot (hoot, hoot)
I just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy
Wanna be supernatural country rockin' galoot

Now big raccoons and harvest moons keep rollin' through my mind
Home on the range where the antelope play
Is very hard to find
Don't bury me on the lone prairie, I'd rather play there alive
I'm heading out west and I'm doin' my best to keep my little pony in overdrive

I just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy
I just want to ride and rope and hoot
I just want to be a Cosmic Cowboy
I wanna be a supernatural country rockin' galoot
And this not the way I'm gonna hoot
And I'm gonna halele he he, halele uh uh, halele hee
