And I have visions
Like scars are in the sky
Boiling water is running from your eye
And all our trouble
Cannot be gone too soon
A cowboy on the moon
And I am stupid
I clutter up my mind
I'm always sorry
For somebody left behind
And I will write you
When I can find the time
A cowboy on the moon

When I was little
We gathered round the set
Remote controls
Were not invented yet
An historic moment
And now I have two pets
A cowboy on the moon
The blessed buttons
And the sacred sandwich
A happy hamper
In which to put my clothes
A Texas spaceman
And a boy named buzz
A cowboy on the moon
