The Yellowstone Cowbear
Hey, look at me, Im a dancing bear in a bow to a gypsy king,
He taught me everything I know and he plays a mean tambourine,
And he got a gold ring in his ear, I got a brass one in my nose,
For any mothers son, for any mommas cub way it goes.
Now, I like my life, thats all I know, theres nothing that I lack
So why do I do dream of the bark of a tree
To scratch my back and figure out
Why I groove on a rainbow trout?
Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams.
Hmmm, why do I have these dreams?
Right foot in and right foot out
Hmmm thats what its all about - dreams.
Dreams
I watch the world go buy through the bars of my mobile home
Why aint I satisfied, what do you mean by Yellowstone?
Now, hes got a foulard made of silk, I got a collar, I got a chain,
But he drives our car and he pays my bills and I only dance when it doesnt
rain.
Like any bear Ive ever seen in ways that I was raised,
But why do I dream of a running stream
So cold and waiting? Tell me why
I get so sleepy in the wintertime?
Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams.
Ohmm, why do I have these dreams?
Put your left foot in and your left foot out
Hmm, baby, thats what its all about - dreams.
Dreams
Now, hes got a lunch box, I got a pail,
I climb a ladder, he plays the drum
He got a moustache, I got a tail,
Were just doing like we always done
Two steps is all I know, two steps is okay by me
But why all these dreams of rolling round
On daisy greens? I got no clue,
Just this feeling of deja vu.
Dreams, dreams, dreams, recurring dreams.
Hmmmm, why do I have these dreams?
Right foot in and right foot out
Hmmm, thats what its all about - dreams.
(Im a Yellowstone cowbear)
(thats why)

(rrrrrrrrrgh!)
