Magpie lyrics

Magpie

You're an early riser

Magpie

You're a bold chastiser

Magpie

Always waking up my wife and I

You old coyote in the sky

Magpie

Some say you're a bold deceiver

I say you're a true believer

Magpie

You know the west ain't never going to die

Just as long as you can fly

You travel all around these hills

Like a gypsy

I don't see the matter with that

Your choice is meat for something to eat

I don't have a problem with that

You build a big house

With a front and a back door

And you want to be free

Holy Moses magpie

I am you - you are me

Walk that walk

Talk that talk

Sing me a song of way long ago

Was it out on the trail

You got a beautiful tail

Riding on the back of the white buffalo

Did you cut a deal with the white buffalo?

You hand all around these hills

In the winter time

Why in the hell would you want to do that

If it was me I'd be out of here man

Give me a couple of seconds

And I'll grab my hat

Ah, magpie, you're a pretty bird

You just want to be free

Holy Moses magpie

I am you - you are me
