They rode like they was Rangers as they came out of the They had horses with beacons in their eyes My gun was cocked and ready when I looked into face I they just weren't just common buck-a-roos born of the human race No, sir, these Cowboys came space
shootin' irons shot laser light and their spurs was anodized Bandanas caked with stardust and their was pressurized Well he me a halter, said, "Tighten up the girth." But before I hit the we were miles above the Earth. And I mean MILES the Earth
I London, Paris, Budapest, Kashmir and Tokyo And there ain't no sight a desert night looking down on Mexico To the Moons of Mars and Jupiter, 'round Saturn's we rode Past the frozen plains of where even the sunshine's cold Man, I do COLD
