"Muter! don't let your babies grow up to
be cowboys!
Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're expensive to keep
They’ll bankrupt ze nation with war unt inflation
And tell you it’s all about peace
Lonestar belt buckles unt old faded levis,
Unt each night begins a new fucking day.
They’ll lead you unt me into world war three
Then watch how they just ride away
Eins, Zvi, Drei!
Muter! don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys!
Don't let 'em hang with Saudis and own baseball teams
Make em read Marx if you know what I mean!
Muter! don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys!
They’ll gut ze constitution and their final solution
Will ruin ze country you love
Cowboys play golf and take vacations when children need to be fed
They occupy countries unt kill innocent people
And by 10 o’clock they’ve gone to bed
They destroy civil rights unt trash habeas corpus
And never take responsibility
The country is hurtin but not Halliburton:
They’re spreading freedom unt fucking liberty!
Eins, Zwi, Drie!
Muter! don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys!
Don't send him to Yale to make him a man
Tell him to work in a camp in Sudan!
Muter! don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys!
They’ll gut ze constitution and their final solution
Will ruin ze country you love
Mastubate! (i.e modulate)
Muter! don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys!
If he talks about smoking out ze enemy
Lock him in his room! Unt throw away ze key!
Muter! don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
They’ll gut ze constitution and their final solution
Will ruin ze country you love
They’ll abuse unt cheat us in the name of Jesus
Unt ruin ze country we love
We’ll live in disgrace as they lie to our face
Unt ruin ze country we love!!!
