Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond of Each Other
Words & music Ned Sublette
There's many a strange impulse out on the plains of West Texas
And there's many a young boy who feels things he can't comprehend
A small town don't like it when somebody falls between sexes
A small town don't like it when a cowboy has feelings for men
Well I believe in my soul that inside every man there's a feminine
And inside every lady there's a deep manly voice loud and clear
A cowboy may brag about things that he's done with his women
But the ones who brag loudest are the ones who are most likely queer
Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
Say what do you think all them saddles and boots were about
There's many a cowboy don't know how he feels for his brother
And inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out
There's always somebody who says what the others just whisper
And mostly that someone's the first one to get shot down dead
So when you talk to a cowboy don't treat him like he was a sister
You can't f*ck with a lady who’s sleepin' in each cowboy's head
Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other
Say what do you think all them saddles and boots were about
there's many a cowboy don't know how he feels for his brother
And inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out
And inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out
And inside every dagger there’s a dagger who’d love to swagger out
Inside all us cowfolks there’s queers waiting to come out

gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
oh you you-ooh-ooh
sitting on the front porch making lottery dreams
sometimes things just aren’t quite what they seem
a living room show and the whole island came
bad decisions fueled by rhubarb champagne
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
oh you. You-ooh-ooh
it’s a telenovela tha-a-a-t never ends
who needs cable when you’ve got these friends
backyard drama it’s the hot new trend
the rest of us just want this to end
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
oh you. You-ooh-ooh
I don't think it's some vast conspiracy
but you can be mad
if you want to be
I don’t think it’s some vast conspiracy
but you can be mad if you
wanna be-e-e-e
it's a ticking time bomb
an unraveling mess
texts are flying
there’s no map for this
rolling deuces down
to try and ease the pain
exes showing up and it's starts again
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
gotta find out if I love you as much as I think I do
oh you. You-ooh-ooh
oh you. You ooh ohh
oh you-ooooooooo you-ooh-oooh

Another Time & Place
Words & music Cindy Emch 2020
Days in September, I wish you were here
With a case of sangria and those good bad ideas
Swimming out in the water, under mountain starlight
Songs, fire, and laughter goin’ all through the night
But we’re farther apart than we’re used to
Even when we’re face to face
Wish I could just
Touch your hand
But that’s another time and place
That’s another time and place
Driving through the fire, dreaming through the trees
White-knucklin’ through the mountains make it home before the freeze
The road sings a swan song, the guitar it screams
All those good people now are falling to their knees
But we’re farther apart than we’re used to
Even when we’re face to face
Wish I could just
Touch your hand
But that’s another time and place
That’s another time and place
My heart burns like a star for you
This time is carving a scar for two
and I
haven't hugged a friend in twelve months time
Small screens of living are all we got left
And I hold your sweet laughter right close to my chest
The phone rings no answer all through the night
It’s just me and the forest leaving all of this behind
But we’re farther apart than we’re used to
Even when we’re face to face
Wish I could just
Touch your hand
But that’s another time and place
That’s another time and place
