Lyrics of Cowboy Dan - Modest Mouse

Well, cowboy dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He goes to the reservation, drinks and gets mean
And he's gonna start a war
He's gonna start a war
And he hops in his pickup, puts his pedal to the floor
And says: I got mine, but I want more

Because cowboy dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He goes to the reservation, drinks and gets mean
He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky
And said: God, if I have to die, you will have to die

Because cowboy dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He didn't move to the city
The city moved to me
And I want out desperately

Can't do it
Not even if sober
Can't get that engine turned over
Can't do it
Not even if sober
Can't get that engine turned over
Don't know
Not even if sober
Can't get that engine turned over

Standing in the tall grass
Thinking nothing
You know
We need oxygen to breath
Oxygen to breath

Standing in the tall grass
Thinking nothing
You know
We need oxygen to breath
Oxygen to breath

Everytime you think you're walking
You're just moving the ground
Everytime you think you're talking
You're just moving your mouth
Everytime you think you're looking
You're just looking down

Well, cowboy dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He goes to the reservation, drinks and gets mean
He hops in his pickup, puts the pedal to the floor
And says: I got mine, but I want more

'Cause cowboy dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He goes to the reservation, drinks and gets mean
He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky
And says: God, if I have to die, you will have to die

Cowboy dan's a major player in the cowboy scene
He goes the the reservation, drinks and gets mean
He didn't move to the city
The city moved to me
And I want out desperately

Can't do it
Not even if sober
Can't get that engine turned over
Can't do it
Not even if sober
Can't get that engine turned over
No, no
Not even if sober
Can't get that engine turned over
Yeah
Not even if sober
Can't get that engine turned over
