Cosmic Cowboy, Pt. 1 Lyrics - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Merry-go-rounds and burial grounds 

Are all the same to me. 

Horses on post and kids and ghosts 

Are spirits that we ought to set free. 

Then city slicker pickers got a lot of 

Slicker licks than me. 

But ridin' the range and acting strange 

Is where I want to be. 

And I just wanna be a cosmic cowboy 

I just wanna ride and rope and hoot (hoot!) 

Well I just wanna be a cosmic cowboy 

Talkin' 'bout a supernatural country rockin' galoot

Well skinny dippin' and lone star sippin' and steel guitar 

And are just as good as hollywood and some boogie-woogie bars. 

I'm gonna buy me a vest and a head out west 

My little woman and myself. 

And when we come to town the people gather around 

And marvel at the little baby's health. 

And I just wanna be a cosmic cowboy 

I just wanna ride and rope and hoot (hoot!) 

Well I just wanna be a cosmic cowboy 

I said a supernatural country rockin' galoot. 

Then a big raccoon and a harvest moon 

Keep rolling through my mind. 

And a home on the range where the antelope play 

Is sometimes hard to find. 

So don't bury me on the lone prairie. 

I'd rather play there alive. 

Well, I'm doing my best I keep my farm in the west 

My little bronco in over-drive.

Well I just wanna be a cosmic cowboy 

Talkin' 'bout a supernatural country rockin' galoot. 

And I just wanna be a cosmic cowboy 

I just wanna ride and rope and hoot (hoot!)
