Cows Around

Well, everything is better with some cows around
Living in town sometimes brings me down
Let me bestow this western blessing and share what I have found
May you always have cows around

What else you gonna spend that extra money on?
What else is gonna get you up hours before dawn?
What else is gonna keep you toilin' on and on and on?
May you always have cows around

C'mon, you know that you got too much time on your hands
Not nearly enough complication in your plans
You need to invite all of the frustration that you can
May you always have cows around

Well, everything is better with some cows around
Living in town sometimes brings me down
Let me bestow this western blessing, leave you saddle-bound
May you always have cows around

What else can make the bishop swear like a sailor might?
What else can cause such tension between a man and his wife?
What else could ever bring all these enhancements to your life?
May you always have cows around

What else is gonna get out when ya don't close the gate
What else'll make ya prematurely show your age?
What else'll take a run at you in a fit of bovine rage?
May you always have cows around

Well, everything is better with some cows around
Living in town sometimes brings me down
And although this western blessing leaves you cattle-bound
May you always have cows around

Ya mighta had to do all things to raise the cash

Well, how else ya gonna lose it all like daddy did?
What else will make sure you leave nothing for your kids?
It's too late now, you know it is, you might as well admit
That you have a badly flawed and sentimental masochisticneas
And that despite all the statistics and the advice that you get
You will always have cows around, yeah!

May you always have cows around
