A Cowboy In Connecticut

He's a cowboy in Connecticut All Southern drawl and wide tooth grin No matter how he tries it ain't no lie The boy just don't fit in He wears his Stetson hat, Alligator boots Jingle Jangle Spurs with stylish Chaps He dresses the part this cowboy work of art Draws attention wherever he's at He loves his Karaoke Always requests a yodel song When he's up on the stage folks don't know what to say As he asks them all to sing along You may wonder why he's not in Texas He prefers it brisk and cold Since he was born and raised among the Northern crazed But it's the cowboy life that stole his soul He has no cowhand to help with roundups Local Yocals wouldn't dare be seen with him He rides and ropes on his bike cats and dogs at night With no horse or cattle to his name Cause he's a cowboy in Connecticut All Southern drawl and wide tooth grin Where no matter how he tries it ain't no lie The boy just don't fit in
