Sung to the tune of Don McLean's American Pie: AMERICAN COW PIE A long long time ago I can still remember how that mooing use to give me gas And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those cows dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while. But cold wind made me shiver With every cowpie I'd deliver Bad moos on the quick step I couldn't make one more cowflop I can't remember if I cried When I read about his bovine bride But someone milked me deep inside The day the mooing died So{Refrain} Bye-bye, Miss American CowPie Drove my bessie to the barn But the barn was dry And them good old cows were eatin shakes and pies Mooing this'll be the day that I fly This'll be the day that I fly Did you write the Book of Moo And do you have faith in Carl above If the flop tells you so Do you believe in chewing cud Can Moo save your mortal soul And can you teach me how to chew real slow Well, I know that you're in love with him 'Cause I saw you grazing in the gym You both kicked off your bells Man, I dig that chewing of cud I was a lonely teenage strutting cow With pink shiny gums and a ringing bell It's my milk you like to suck The day the mooing died I started singin' {Refrain} Now for ten years we've been grazing free And cows grows fat with a kidney stone But that's not how it used to be When the maid wants her meat so nice and lean Not the pork he borrowed from Jimmy Dean And a menu that came from you and me Oh, and while the cook was looking down The waiter stole his hairy hound The barnyard was tilled and turned No barn was burned And when Lenny got bad marks The dogs ran wild in the park And we ate sausages in the dark The day the mooing died We were singing {Refrain} Henny Youngman in a summer sweater Hes old but never looked better Eighty years old and fading fast He'll soon be under the grass The mower needs lots of gas With the waiter's broken arm in a cast Now the cowpies have their own sweet perfume While the farmers dance under the full moon We all got up to moo Oh, but we never put on our shoes Cause the cows tried to eat the field The munching cows refused to yield Do you recall what was revealed The day the mooing died We started singing {Refrain} Oh, in the barns that is our place A whole herd Lost in Space With no grass left to grow again So come on, cows be nimble, cows be quick let a cow give you a lick 'Cause his tongue is your best friend Oh, and I watched Buz up on the stage My bells were ringing with bovine rage No cow born in hell Could break that farmers spell And as the milk pails were emptied though the night The cow is always right I saw cows mooing with delight The day the mooing died He was singing {Refrain} I met a cow who sang the blues And I asked her if she liked her shoes But she just mooed and walked away I went down to the bovine store Where I'd heard the mooing years before But the cow there said the milk wasn't hay And in the fields the cows they were lean The farmers cried, and the chickens dreamed But not a moo was spoken The cow bells all were broken And the three meals I admire most The cakes, jam and the Holy toast They sent the last cowpie up the coast The day the mooing died And they were singing {Refrain} Bye-bye, Miss American CowPie Drove my bessie to the barn But the barn was dry And them good old cows were eatin shakes and pies Mooing this'll be the day that I fly This'll be the day that I fly by Reverend Mad Dog The Holy Church of Moo Moo Oom, David DAILY COW/Cows Loose On The Highway http://pages.prodigy.com/dczine/index2.htm THE HOLY CHURCH OF MOO/A Call To Cud http://members.aol.com/DailyCow/indexhcom.htm
