Elvis the Country Singing Owl

Elvis the owl was singing in the rain His refrains were ridiculous. Gloriously with a snap insane! His boots would twirl as he sang of old Cowboys meeting up with an alien Who had a space heart of gold I watched him travel from town to town To steal hearts of the country crowd Making Texas happy, with his whiskey sound Barkeeps would try to extend his stay But his voice was like silver and diamonds too The others would complain in a casual way He could commit murder and get away Elvis the owl, you are the boy I never had! Said a groupie who followed him every day
