Cowboy
Zed's Dead/Omar Linx Lyrics

Hello, everybody
Introducing the topic of the song.

It's TV-Time! Off we go
Starting an imaginary adventure.

I've got a holster for my gun
Preparedness for the adventure.

Silver spurs on my boots
Indicating cowboy attire.

I'll be ready when they come
Being on guard for any danger.

God help the first one that shoots!
Threatening any potential opponent.

I guess I'll never change
Accepting one's nature and history.

'Cause I was born on the range
Acknowledging one's cowboy origin.

Cowboys and Indians
Referencing old western movies.

Heyup!
Expressing enthusiasm.

I won't make Custer's mistake
Avoiding foolish mistakes of history.

He didn't finish all his beans
Making a humorous reference to Custer's last meal.

Sometimes I get the shakes
Feeling anxious in dangerous situations.

Wish I was back in New Orleans
Longing for a safer place.

Hands up! Golly!
Reacting to an unexpected event.

Howdy, pardner
Greeting a fellow cowboy.

Oh, no, we don't stand a chance!
Expressing doubt about the outcome of the adventure.

This could be my last stand
Being ready to fight until the end.

War paint and colors everywhere
Describing the appearance of Indian warriors.

Aw, shucks! My Winny just did jam!
Complaining about a malfunctioning weapon.

No Redskin's gonna trim my hair!
Resisting any attempt to harm oneself.

Now tell them the true story
Inviting the listeners to pay attention.

Cowboys and Indians
Repeating the theme of the song.

How the west was really won
Challenging the common narrative of western history.
