Cow Town Lyrics
(Carly Simon)Donald Swan, he was a millionaire>From a Texas oil familyBut he still worked hard and believed in GodHe was a man of integrityHe went to France on businessMet a woman there named SimoneShe saw love in the eyes of the American guyAnd she didn't like to be alone(Chorus)Now it's a cow townIt's a cow townFor Simone SwannLiving on the Buffalo BayouShe packed up all her perfumeFor the gusty pioneerOn a carefree note he said, "Forget your coatThere's a chill about every ten years"So they flew hand in hand to HoustonHome of Exxon, Gulf and ShellHe said we have an income bigger than FranceWe all think that's swellHe loved her French accentAnd her knowledge of the artsAnd she, for one, had always fanciedHaving a millionaire sweetheartSo they got married up in Dripping SpringsFlew her Mama in from CannesShe said: "What kind of romance could makeMy baby leave FranceDonald must be some kind of Don Juan"Now she thinks about France and the nightlife thereAnd it's cafes and bistrosDonald, a hard working, simple manLikes to see the livestock showsAnd when he's not off on businessHe's off checkin' out cows and pigsAnd she gets weary on a twelve mile prairieStarin' at the drilling rigsNow it's a cow townIt's a cow townFor Simone SwannLiving on the Buffalo Bayou
