Chris Ledoux - The Cowboy And The Hippie Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • On a highway thru the desert beneath an over pass
  • Sat two hikers just watchin' cars go by
  • Now one was wearin' sandles with straggly matted hair
  • Rose colored glasses for his eyes
  • Now the other was a cowboy he'd been down on his luck
  • Lost his money at the Tuson rodeo
  • And he sat beside what remained of his trusty pickup truck
  • And like the hippie now he's thumbin' down the road
  • Some folks don't realize that it's a well know fact
  • Cowboy's and hippies ain't never got along
  • Was it just coincidence or some weird act of fate
  • That brought these two together on the road
  • They sat there without talking while the morning sun rose high
  • When a hot desert breeze commenced to blow
  • And the fragrance of the incense and six weeks without a bath
  • Finally drifted down and reached the cowboy's nose
  • Well man that really did it he couldn't take no more
  • And he tied his old bandana around his face
  • He said you greasy stinking hippie you'd put a skunk to shame
  • Boy you're a discrace to the human race
  • Now the hippie just sat there and gave the cowboy a smile
  • Said man you don't smell so sweet yourself
  • Well I'm not too sure what that green stuff is on your boots and on your jeans
  • But whew it's enough to make a buzzard belch
  • The cowboy said now listen I ain't gonna that that stuff from you
  • No long haired freaks gonna talk to me that way get up
  • Well the hippie said, now hold on man, what good's that gonna do
  • You know fighting never settles nothing anyway
  • Now we both love our freedom and we'll answer to no man
  • And you've heard it said to thine own self be true
  • We're just a couple of free spirts drifting across the land
  • Doing exactly what we want to do
  • Said now me I got my things and you you got yours
  • And I don't see why we can't get along
  • They say the closest thing to freedom is livin' on the road
  • In a country were freedom's almost gone
  • Well the cowboy, he just stood up there and never said a word
  • But you know this hippie sure made a lot of sense
  • They shook hands and parted as a truck pulled to the side
  • And the hippie he went East and I went West
