Something Inside So Strong

They rode like they was Rangers 
as they came out of the skies
They had High-Tech horses 
with beacons in their eyes
My gun was cocked and ready 
when I looked into their face
I seen they just weren't just common buck-a-roos 
born of the human race
No, sir, these Cowboys came from space


Their shootin' irons shot laser light 
and their spurs was anodized
Bandanas caked with stardust 
and their jeans was pressurized
Well he handed me a halter, 
said, "Tighten up the girth."
But before I hit the saddle we were 
miles above the Earth.
And I mean MILES above the Earth


Yippie-aye-ay-e


I seen London, Paris, Budapest, 
Kashmir and Tokyo
And there ain't no sight like a desert night
looking down on Mexico
To the Moons of Mars and Jupiter,
'round Saturn's rings we rode
Past the frozen plains of Pluto 
where even the sunshine's cold
Man, I do mean cold


Then our interstellar stallions sailed 
through the starless void
There was nothing to miss in that emptiness, 
not even a stray asteroid
So we picked up the trail of a comet tail, 
man, you can't even drean that far
And the galloping beat like the rhythm 
of an old catgut guitar
Just the strummin' of a distant star

Well, it could have lasted minutes 
or a hundred thousand years
When they got me down, 
I was safe and sound 
and it hadn't even popped my ears
And they reared back on their broncos 
and they shot a bolt of light
I knew they were the good guys, 
yes, sir. you got it right
'Cause their cowboy hats was White


So I asked 'em as they pulled their 
reins towards the settin' sun
I said, "Before you go, I'd like to know, 
just where you boys come from?"
Well they opened up a star chart and said, 
"right here where this 'X' is
It's the biggest place in Outer Space, 
the planet known as Texas"
