Lyrics

[00:00.783] You hardly know a day goes by
[00:02.159] In the cardboard cutout sundown
[00:04.668] The moon popped up like a gallery duck
[00:07.106] Sipped up gold from the sunny cup
[00:09.620] And longhorns sawed the buggy grass
[00:12.685] And a cowboy blew a harp sitting on his chapped ass
[00:16.898] And the prairie flowers didn't look a bit queer
[00:20.038] And the stars struck the sand cartwheeled and poked in the prairie
[00:25.052] A cactus juice stand the only place the crows couldn't land
[00:30.642] The bluebottle flies were as big as the cowboy's eyes
[00:34.562] And their buzz was as loud as rattlers
[00:39.642] A fire engine red whistle blows raspberries
[00:43.066] In a cloud of whipped steam
[00:46.561] A ********** ran out black patent yarn stinkbug hoops
[00:50.284] From above a living mail thriving dot
[00:53.640] In perfect sympathy with the cardboard cutout sundown
[00:59.357] You hardly know a day goes by
[01:00.941] In the cardboard cutout sundown
