Lyrics to Willie Nelson's new gay cowboy hit:

[trof]

Sing along with me folks.
BRILLIANT!

There’s many a strange impulse out on the plains of West Texas;
There’s many a young boy who feels things he don’t comprehend.
Well small town don't like it when somebody falls between sexes,
No, small town don't like it when a cowboy has feelings for men.

Well I believe in my soul that inside every man there’s a feminine,
And inside every lady there’s a deep manly voice loud and clear.
Well, a cowboy may brag about things that he does with his women,
But the ones who brag loudest are the ones that are most likely queer.

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other —
What did you think those saddles and boots was about?
There’s many a cowboy who don’t understand the way that he feels towards his
brother,
Inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out.

Ten men for each woman was the rule way back when on the prairie,
And somehow those cowboys must have kept themselves warm late at night.
Cowboys are famous for getting riled up about fairies,
But I’ll tell you the reason a big strong man gets so uptight:

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other —
That’s why they wear leather, and Levi's and belts buckled tight.
There’s many a cowboy who don’t understand the way that he feels towards his
brother;
There’s many a cowboy who’s more like a lady at night.

Well there's always somebody who says what the others just whisper,
And mostly that someone's the first one to get shot down dead:
When you talk to a cowboy don't treat him like he was a sister
Don't mess with the lady that's sleepin' in each cowboy's head.

Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other —
Even though they take speed and drive pickups and shoot their big guns;
There’s many a cowboy who don’t understand the way that he feels towards his
brother;
There's many a cowboy who keeps quiet about things he's done.

1. Doncha just love Willie?

He's a genuine American hero to me. Met my mom and nephew in an airport once and was very friendly and talkative

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

2. I've got to download that song...

[Flaxbee]

3. gawd I loooove Willie!

he seems like such an interesting person, and very nice. Just watched "Wag the Dog" the other day and he was great in it.

[Deja Q]

4. He suggests gay men are secretly wanting to be women?!

x(

Inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out.

5. only gay cowboys

;-)

He might be suggesting that gay men want to be "ladies," but I hope he is just talking about a yin/yang thing in that all of us are masculine and feminine to some degree.

[ET Awful]

6. LMAO . . . Willie rules.

The ones who brag loudest . . . BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :rofl: :spray:

[NMMNG]

7. I give it mixed reviews

This is often the truth, not only of cowboys but of guys in general:

Well, a cowboy may brag about things that he does with his women,
But the ones who brag loudest are the ones that are most likely queer.

But I definitely don't like his assertion that gay cowboys are akin to ladies. That is one of the biggest problems with homophobia is the notion that gays are effeminiate and "like women/unmanly".

8. Sorry to say...

But Pansy Division did the song in February 1995.

Kudos to Willie, though.
