Verse 1
G
He was an old-time cowboy,
don't you understand
His eyes were sharp as razor blades,
his face was leather tan
C
His toes were pointed inward from
D
G
He was an old philosopher of course
I swear you could have used him for a whip
He had to drink a beer
to keep his britches on his hips
C
I knew I had to ask him
G
about the mysteries of life
D
G
He spit between his boots and he replied

He smiled and all his teeth were covered
with tobacco stains
He said "It don't do men no good
to pray for peace and rain
C

Peace and rain is just a way to say prosperity

And buffalo chips is all it means to me"

I told him I was a poet,
I was lookin' for the truth
I do not care for horses, whiskey, women
or the loot

My soul was all on fire

He looked at me an' he said

Well, I was disillusioned, if I say the least
I grabbed him by the collar
and I jerked him to his feet

There was something cold and shiny

Well, my poet days are over
and I'm back to being me
As I enjoy the peace and comfort of reality

I think that I will readily affirm
