lyrics

I PICKED A REAL BAD WEEK TO RUN OUT OF DOUGH
GOT A PAPER CUT AND I STUBBED MY TOE
NOW AND I’M ALL JACKED UP NOWHERE TO GO
LIMPED ROUND TO MAMMA’S FEELIN LOW
MAMMA SAID BOY DONE SHUT YOUR FACE
DON’T EVEN HARDLY MAKE A SOUND
THAT AINT THE WAY YAWL KIDS WAS RAISED
NOW TAKE YOUR DUMB ASS BACK TO TOWN

AND YOU COWBOY UP AND YOU PARTY DOWN
SPEND YOUR LAST NICKEL ON ANOTHER ROUND
FIND A REAL GOOD WOMAN MAKE A SWEET SOUND
AND YOU COWBOY UP AND YOU PARTY DOWN
PARTY DOWN AND YOU COWBOY UP
PUT YOUR FAITH IN A DIXIE CUP
ROLL UP A SMOKE AND PASS AROUND
AND YOU COWBOY UP AND YOU PARTY DOWN

WELL IT FINALLY HAPPENED AND JUST MY LUCK
BANK MAN DONE REPOSESSED MY TRUCK
GOT A BAG IN THE GLOVE BOX DON’T YOU KNOW
BABY GONE GOTTA HOLD MY OWN
BUT I AINT GOIN ROUND MAMMA HOUSE
KEEPIN MISERY ON THE LOW LOW DOWN
I AINT GOT TIME FOR MAMMA NOW
YOU GOTTA HIT THE ROAD YOU WANNA PAINT THE TOWN

AND YOU COWBOY UP AND YOU PARTY DOWN

NOW WE SHUT ‘ER DOWN AND IT’S TIME TO GO
MY BUDDY’S WEAVIN ALL OVER THE ROAD
RED LIGHTS IN THE REARVIEW START TO GLOW
AW MAN AND IT AINT NO U.F.O.
AND THE POLICE MAN DONE SHINED THE LIGHT
SAID YAWL BOYS LOOKIN LIKE YOU GETTIN RIGHT
NOW WIND THAT SMOKEY WINDOW DOWN
AND THE POLICE MAN SAID DON’T LEAVE TOWN

COS YOU COWBOY’D UP AND YOU PARTIED DOWN
