Cowboy Dan Lyrics - The Lonesome Crowded West - Modest Mouse

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene 

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean 

He's gonna start a war 

He hops in his pickup puts the pedal to the floor 

And says "I got mine but I want more" 

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene 

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean 

He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky 

And says, "God if I have to die you will have to die" 

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene 

He goes the the reservation drinks and gets mean 

I didn't move to the city, the city moved to me 

And I want out desperately 

Can't do it, not even if sober 

Can't get that engine turned over 

Standing in the tall grass 

Thinking nothing 

You know we need oxygen to breath 

Whenever you are walking you're just moving the ground 

Whenever you are talking you're just moving your mouth 

Where ever you look you're just looking down 

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene 

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean 

He's gonna start a war 

He hops in his pickup puts the pedal to the floor 

And says "I got mine but I want more" 

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene 

He goes to the reservation drinks and gets mean 

He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky 

And says, "God if I have to die you will have to die" 

Well, Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene 

He goes the the reservation drinks and gets mean 

I didn't move to the city, the city moved to me 

And I want out desperately 

Can't do it, not even if sober 

Can't get that engine turned over
