lyrics

Ranch Hand’s Tale

I’m too old for this I said
As I threw back my head
And swallowed

There I n my throat it caught
Just like the afterthoughts
That followed

Just another ranch hand’s tale
Out of place in Arkansas
A stupid dare I couldn’t fail
Wondered what those cowboys thought

Did it live inside my gut
Glowing white and growing plump
I wondered

I mean just what the hell
What kind of wicked spell
Was I under

When I agreed to eat a grub
At the age thirty-three
Did they think that I was dumb
Full of insecurity
