Another Cheap Western

(Michael Martin Murphey)

Six nights a week I been boozin' with a bar fly

Call the eight ball in the corner pocket

Boozin' with my beehive baby.

I do mean maybe.

While you're jivin' to the jukebox try to stay alive

And watch another cheap western with me.

While Jesse picks a banjo you can keep the liquor flowin'.

Blowin' out your mind with a cheap gun sun.

No matter what you say, now

Nobody can save you

From a leather tooled fool

Who's never been high school.

Watch another cheap western with me.

Watch another cheap western.

Watch another cheap western.

Get me one more try to get me off the floor.

Watch another cheap western with me.

When they call in the Ku Klux Klan from the sticks

You better do a few tricks like quickly disappearing.

Just like a revival it's a matter of survival.

Just get me one more try to get me off the floor.

Watch another cheap western with me.

Tryin' to be nice to the guy next to ya.

Diggin' his date, she looks right through ya.

Don't dance with his girlfriend

You'll be leavin' this world friend.

But I've played a few gigs

And I've seen a few pigs.

So watch another cheap western.

Watch another cheap western.

But I've been around the world

Seen a lot of cowgirls.

Watch another cheap western with me.
