Because Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene He goes to the reservation, drinks and gets mean He drove the desert, fired his rifle in the sky And said, "God, if I have to die, you will have to die." Because Cowboy Dan's a major player in the cowboy scene He didn't move to the city: "The city moved to me, And I want out desperately."
