Winter Cows

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The cows in the moo yard are making their plans For the long winter nights, and the cold winter hands [Verse 2] Some out in the fields are covered with snow The black ones turn white, and the white ones don't show [Verse 3] Big lamps in the sunset, between bovine dreams Their icicled udders are waiting for spring [Verse 4] And up from the road comes the sound of the wheel Just an old ice cream wagon, they say "I know how you feel." [Verse 5] Some dream of India, where their cousins are stars But they don't like the crowds, so they stay where they are [Verse 6] And some dream of Florida, of roaming the beach With metal detectors for gold they can reach [Verse 7] Well, what can you do? It's the ice or the flies The temperature slowing, the tails going by [Verse 8] It's a dairy existence, and I must conclude... Cold milk in a bottle still beats frozen foods
