My parrot, my goat and my rooster
The finest of pets that you'll find
With them I bring joy wherever I go
And make some to make things go round
To New Mexico and Arkansas
And even to Illinois' shores
I sell off my kids to the highest bid
And then I return home for more
I grew up to thrive among horses
And I do not deny I was poor
Now my name is known throughout the plains
And among the güeros in the north
d**h rides ever by my side
And the high lords far behind
For where there's will there'll be a way
And my ways are hard to find
[Bridge]
Money's a treacherous companion
And that's why I spend mine with ease
On women and friends, to smoothen the bends
Yeah, I keep just the little I need
They say that my pets bring but pain and regrets
And then they ask me to pa** them a booster
It's the greatest of men who come again and again
To my parrot, my goat and my rooster
[Outro]
