Krishna (Riding Shotgun On The Stagecoach Of My Life)

Set 'em up, break 'em down
And pass the cup around
It's the last that we will share for quite some time
I've shaved my hair - wear a dress
I've left my bonny wife
I've got Krishna riding shotgun on the stagecoach of my life

My sweet lord rama rama
Got my ticket to Nirvana
It's a commune just left of county Cork
Share a pint with me lord Shiva
As we read the Bhagavad Gita
I'll have Krishna riding shotgun on the stagecoach of my life
-of my life

Well I used to be a cattle prod for Jesus
And L. Ron Hubbard took me in some too
I was a moonie, loved Charles Manson
But they are not as handsome
As the godhead whose skin is shining blue

My sweet lord rama rama
Got my ticket to Nirvana
It's a commune just left of county Cork
Share a pint with me lord Shiva
As we read the Bhagavad Gita
I'll have Krishna riding shotgun on the stagecoach of my life
-of my life

Hari Hari Ha Hooray!
I chant it every day
with my virtue tucked proudly in my lap
And I pray all night to Krishna
'Cause he's a damned good listener
And he never ever ever answers back

My sweet lord rama rama
Got my ticket to Nirvana
It's a commune just left of county Cork
Share a pint with me lord Shiva
As we read the Bhagavad Gita
I'll have Krishna riding shotgun on the stagecoach of my life
-of my life

And when Irish eyes are trying to make the Pommies pay
We'll get Krishna and his shotgun to join the IRA
the IRA - the IRA
Hari Hari Ha Hooray!
