  1. It’s High Time This Old Cowboy Quit Gettin’ So Goldanged High

Heineken mornings and hashish afternoons
Wishing for long trips but they’re ending too soon
Woke up in a bathtub fully dressed soaking wet
Chasing the whiskey it’s mixed with regret

It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high
Can’t soar like an eagle if you’re too fucked up to fly
Laughing just like a hyna, as the tears roll down my eye
It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high
It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high

All the folks I let down and everything I snorted
I didn’t give an Amsterdam until I got deported
On that long flight back to JFK, I drank so much champagne
They had to tie me to my chair when I tried to fly the plane

It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high
Can’t soar like an eagle if you’re too fucked up to fly
Laughing just like a hyna, as the tears roll down my eye
It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high
It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high

SOLO

It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldanged high
Can’t soar like an eagle if you’re too fucked up to fly
Laughing just like a hyna, as the tears roll down my eye
It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high
It’s high time this old cowboy quit getting so goldang high
