On a highway thru the desert beneath an over pass [00:00:09]

Sat two hikers just watchin' cars go by [00:00:13]

Now one was wearin' sandles with straggly matted hair [00:00:18]

Rose colored glasses for his eyes [00:00:23]

Now the other was a cowboy he'd been down on his luck [00:00:27]

Lost his money at the Tuson rodeo [00:00:31]

And he sat beside what remained of his trusty pickup truck [00:00:35]

And like the hippie now he's thumbin' down the road [00:00:40]

Some folks don't realize that it's a well know fact [00:00:45]

Cowboy's and hippies ain't never got along [00:00:49]

Was it just coincidence or some weird act of fate [00:00:54]

That brought these two together on the road [00:00:58]

They sat there without talking while the morning sun rose high [00:01:02]

When a hot desert breeze commenced to blow [00:01:07]

And the fragrance of the incense and six weeks without a bath [00:01:11]

Finally drifted down and reached the cowboy's nose [00:01:16]

Well man that really did it he couldn't take no more [00:01:21]

And he tied his old bandana around his face [00:01:25]

He said you greasy stinking hippie you'd put a skunk to shame [00:01:29]

Boy you're a discrace to the human race [00:01:34]

Now the hippie just sat there and gave the cowboy a smile [00:01:38]

Said man you don't smell so sweet yourself [00:01:42]

Well I'm not too sure what that green stuff is on your boots [00:01:47]

And on your jeans [00:01:50]

But whew it's enough to make a buzzard belch [00:01:51]

The cowboy said now listen I ain't gonna that that stuff from you [00:02:03]

No long haired freaks gonna talk to me that way get up [00:02:07]

Well the hippie said now hold on man what good's that gonna do [00:02:11]

You know fighting never settles nothing anyway [00:02:16]

Said you know man a lot way we're not block lie [00:02:20]

Want you get down but need skin [00:02:25]

Like two books were differernt covers but the same words inside [00:02:29]

We're both brother to the woman [00:02:34]

Now we both love our freedom and we'll answer to no man [00:02:38]

And you've heard it said to thine own self be true [00:02:42]

We're just a couple of free spirts drifting across the land [00:02:47]

Doing exactly what we want to do [00:02:51]

Said now me I got my things and you you got yours [00:02:56]

And I don't see why we can't get along [00:03:01]

They say the closest thing to freedom is livin' on the road [00:03:05]

In a country were freedom's almost gone [00:03:09]

Well the cowboy he just stood up there and never said a word [00:03:14]

But you know this hippie sure made a lot of sense [00:03:18]

They shook hands and parted as a truck pulled to the side [00:03:22]

And the hippie he went East and I went West [00:03:27]
