G

I am a ceilidh cowboy

I'm a stranger in this town

You should hear your women squeal with joy

D G

When I get their knickers down

[Verse 2]

I'll dance them and romance them

C

Till they're nearly out of breath

G

Then when I take them out for air

D G

I'll fuck them half to death

[Bridge]

Been sitting on the fridge close to the edge

G D

Runnin out of coke and dyin for a poke

[Verse 3]

G

Don't lock up your wives and daughters

C

Don't lock up your cats and dogs

Like I came down here my feet all bare

And I sleep in a hollow log
