There’s many a strange impulse out on the plains of West Texas
There’s many a young boy who feels things he don’t comprehend
Well, the small town don’t like it when somebody falls between sexes
No, the small town don’t like it when a cowboy has feelings for men.
Now I believe to my soul that inside every man there’s the feminine
And inside every lady there’s a deep manly voice loud and clear
Well the cowboy may brag about things that he does with his women
But the ones that brag loudest are the ones who are most likely queer.
Sung by Willie Nelson; written (in 1981) by Ned Sublette. Recording released today; available at iTunes.
