Outlaw Acid Cowboy.- Long psychedelic version

[Intro – Spoken over swirling organ + tremolo guitar] Well I was born between a truck stop Bible And a mushroom cloud sunrise… Mama said “Son, don’t trust the government.” Daddy said “Don’t trust the sky.” Too late. [Verse 1] I was ridin’ that blacktop midnight Chrome hummin’ like a prayer Full moon drippin’ silver Through my outlaw hair CB crackled, “Breaker breaker” But it wasn’t from this Earth It said “Saddle up, space cowboy… We know what you’re worth.” ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] And my truck lifted off the highway Like a hymn without a pew Stars bent like barroom neon Burnt orange and UFO blue ⸻ [Chorus – BIG] I’m an OUTLAW ACID COWBOY Ridn’ lightning through the void Steel guitar like a laser beam Heaven can’t be destroyed Bootheels on the Milky Way Rebel soul deployed I’m higher than Orion’s fence With a Martian in a hat Willie rollin’ cosmic paper Sayin’ “Y’all ain’t smokin’ that.” Aliens had space tequila Said it’s brewed on Saturn’s ring But they all got quiet real fast When the Red Head started to sing ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] Planet jukebox spinnin’ backwards In a 3 a.m. parade Neon cactus constellations In a cosmic serenade ⸻ [Chorus – Bigger, add gospel harmony] I’m an OUTLAW ACID COWBOY Driftin’ through eternity Longhair prophet of the desert Cosmic outlaw poetry Shotgun rider to the sunrise Freedom’s my employee I’m higher than Orion’s fence Outlaw Acid Cowboy Dust devils in zero gravity Horses made of flame Pink moons whisper secrets But they all forget my name I dueled a man from Mercury With a six-string and a stare His ray gun couldn’t touch me ‘Cause my truth was thicker air ⸻ [Final Chorus – Full Southern Rock Explosion] I’m an OUTLAW ACID COWBOY Burnt orange galaxy Denim floatin’ through the cosmos Free as I was meant to be From Amarillo to Andromeda OUTLAW ACID COWBOY (Southern Rock. Psychedelic. Cosmic. Loud.)

Drum toms tribal. Steel guitar reverse echo.)

That’s just freedom, son. With better speakers.
