Western Stars

I wake up in the morningJust glad my boots are onInstead of empty in the whispering grassesDown the Five at Forest LawnOn the set, the makeup girl brings meTwo raw eggs and a shot of ginThen I give it all up for that little blue pillThat promises to bring it all back to you againRide me down easyRide me down easy, friendTonight the western stars are shining bright againHere in the canyons above SunsetThe desert don't give up the fightCoyote with someone's Chihuahua in it's teeth skitters'Cross my veranda in the nightSome lost sheep from OklahomaSips her Mojito down at the Whiskey BarSmiles and says she thinks she remembers me from thatCommercial with the credit cardHell, these days there ain't no moreNow there's just againTonight the western stars are shining bright againSundays I take my El CaminoThrow my saddle in and goEast to the desert where the charrosThey still ride and ropeOur American brothers cross the wireand bring the old ways with themTonight the western stars are shining bright againOnce I was shot by John WayneYeah, it was towards the endThat one scene's brought me a thousand drinksSet me up and I'll tell it for you, friendHere's to the cowboysRiders in the whirlwindTonight the western stars are shining bright againAnd the western stars are shining bright againTonight the riders on Sunsetare smothered in the Santa Ana windsAnd the western stars are shining bright againC'mon and ride me down easyRide me down easy, friend'Cause tonight the western stars are shining bright againI woke up this morningJust glad my boots were on
