Testo Cowpuncher's Cantata - Max Bygraves
Testo della canzone Cowpuncher's Cantata (Max Bygraves), tratta dall'album Tulips From Amsterdam
I traveled across to America
And when I arrived in America
They said, "Son, you know you can't go wrong
If you finish your show with a cowboy song"
So I practiced all day to get the song right
And I dreamed of those songs all through the night
That night I heard the wild goose cry
He'd got mixed up with the riders in the sky
Tried to sleep, but it was in vain
Have you ever tried sleeping on a mule train?
My heart goes where the mule train goes
And I must go where the mule train goes
Brother goose, mother goose, don't you fear
'Cause I've arrived and to prove it, I'm here
Wow! Huh-huh, he must sue me
The riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
"If you're looking for the wild goose, he's on the mule train
So cowboy, mend your ways today, forget your life of sin
And you will be in time to meet the shrimp boats coming in"
Get up there! Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Git up there, Boar! Go on, don't paint there -snort- gush!
My heart goes where the shrimp boats go
And I must go where the shrimp boats go
I'm gonna ride that dusty trail
'Cause they've locked up my lover in Allentown jail
You know, this kinda reminds me of the
First time I blew into Tombstone City
Yes sir, that night I slept on the prairie and
All night long those prairie dogs kept howlin'
I couldn't understand why they kept howlin' then I found out
Ain't no trees on the prairie, just cactus
If ever the devil was born without a pair of horns
It was you, Sonny Boy
