Lonesome Cowboy Burt (In Rehearsal 1970)

My name is Burtram
I am a cowboy
All my friends
They call me Burt
All my family
From down in Texas
Make their livin'
Diggin' dirt

Come out here
To Californy
Just to find me
Some pretty girls
Ones I seen
Gets me so horny
Ruby lips
'N teeth like pearls

Wanna love 'em all
Wanna love 'em dearly
Wanna pretty girl
I'll even pay
I'll buy 'em furs
I'll buy 'em jewelry
I know they like me
Here's what I say

I'm Lonesome Cowboy Burt
(Speakin' atcha!)
Come smell my fringe-y shirt
(Reekin' atcha!)
My cowboy pants
My cowboy dance
My bold advance
On this here waitress
Yodel odel tee ay
Yodel odel tee . . .

(He's Lonesome Cowboy Burt
Don'tcha get his feelings hurt)
Come on in this place
And I'll buy you a taste
You can sit on my face
Where's my waitress?

Burtram, Burtram Redneck
Burtram, Burtram Redneck

I'm an awful nice guy
Sweat all day in the sun
I'm a roofer by trade
Quite a bundle I've made
I'm a unionized roofin' old
Son-of-a-gun
(He's a unionized roofin' old
Son-of-a-gun)

When I get off, I get plastered
Drink till I fall on the floor
Find me some Communist bastard
'N stomp on his face till he don't
Move no more
(He stomps on his face till he don't
Move no more)

I fuss an' I cuss an' I keep on drinkin'
Till my eyes puff up an' turn red
I drool on m'shirt
I see if he's hurt
I kick him again in the head (Let's)
Kick him again in the head (Boys)
Kick him again in the head (Now)
Kick him again in the head

Lonesome Cowboy Burt
(Speakin' atcha!)
Come smell my fringe-y shirt!
(Reekin' atcha!)
My cowboy pants
My cowboy dance
My bold advance
On this here waitress
Yodel odel tee ay
Yodel odel tee . . .

(He's Lonesome Cowboy Burt
Don'tcha get his feelin's hurt)
Come on in this place
And I'll buy you a taste
And you . . .
