Sounds Like
It sounds like lonesome sin in the praries
It sounds the first blue cloud you've seen in years
It sounds like the truth lying deep in the well of a shining bright lie
It sounds like you've got nothing left to loose
It sounds like a memory you haven't seen in a long time
It sounds like not going back to that old life
It sounds like
It sounds like
It sounds like
We started in the mountains.
Through the rivers.
Into the long tall prairie grasses.
We took those lost years.
When we lost our way.
We took our memories.
Some things we’d rather forget.
But we took it all.
We learned our craft.
Through the noise.
Through the smoke.
Through the heartache.
The empty rooms.
The cold nights.
This is everything.
This is Cowpuncher.
Hey CP! We're in Calgary next month, I'll comp in the Cowpuncher who brings me one of those awesome hats I didn't get last time!!!
I saw your blog, the Joey Only/Bob Wayne show was a loud mess, but was the right thing to do! It was a loud mess! But no blame pointing will be done in publc! Hope you are well, played you on my radio show a few times this fall...cheers..joe
Howdy Cowpuncher! It was fun playing with you folks at The Auditorium Hotel. I thought that was Mick Jagger singing for a while there! Not sucky old Disco Mick, but the cool one that did Wild Horses and stuff like that. -LL
I am an old cowpuncher, I punch them cows so hard
I have me a cowpunching bag, set up in my back____
This bag is made of leather, and so are cows, of course
When I get tired of punching cows, I go and punch a ____
One day as I was punching upon my leathern cow
An Indian walked up to me, and first he asked me ____
I said it was quite simple, and gave him quite a slug
The very next words that the Indian said to me that day were ____
I went back to my punching, as all good cowboys do
When a well-known band of rustlers came rustling into ____
I said, Hello, how are you, and what might bring you here
They said, if it's all right we'd like to rustle up some ____
I said, oh no, kind sirs, that should never be
For I am the best cowpuncher out on the whole prair___
But if you will sit down a spell, I'll rustle up some lunch
Then maybe in the afternoon you'll get to watch me ____
I've been lonesome in the saddle ever since my old horse died
And sometimes when it's late at night, I dream she's by my ____
So if you'll pay attention and listen to my song
I am an old cowpuncher and a long, long way from ____
Hey fellas:
Just wanted you to know I haven't forgotten.
Talked to the dude from O'hanlon's a few days ago and he said he hadn't received yer package yet?
I dunno. I just got booked for the Regina Folk Fest though and I'm thinkin' 'bout bookin' somethin' to promote that. I'll let you know what I can get. Also, I'm gonna be headin' to Calgary in July sometime. Probably late July. Thought maybe we could set somethin' up around then? Maybe early Aug.? I dunno. That's a ways into the future but now the bug's outta the zapper.
Hey! Howdy from Cowtown! Hope the ninth is treatin' you well! If you haven't already heard we just entered our bid to play this years Vans Warped Tour and we need help from friends! We need votes to clinch a spot on the bill! So if you have a handful of minutes vote! Or just check us out! Just click on the banner! Thanks! Watch those gopher holes! They break ankles!
Hey guys;
Things are well, thank-you. When were you hoping to come through the Vag?
There are a couple of decent places to play, but it depends on what day of the week. Keep in touch and I'll do what I can for you. If you guys want we can combine forces for a show there and then y'all can have a bit of a crowd there for sure.
Take care.
