The Martini Cowboy was riding in a cab,
past the horses in the stable in Central Park,
The sun was on the rise, so the day'd begun,
but the night was long and the ladies were young,
He cried, "damn that was such a good time,
why can't all of life be as great as it was tonight?
And I wish it would all rhyme”,
The city folk laughed, they said, "where is your horse”,
He said, "it's up your ass, no it's racing of course",
The martini so cold that the glass was all frost,
The romance was strong, but it came at a cost,
She said, "you know that I care for you so,
but it never could work,
don't ask me why it's just something I know,
I think I'd better go home"
Another night, another chance, another song, another dance,
another lady is swept in the field of his charms,
She said, "you know I could fall for you, so I will implore to you,
give me one more martini and I'll simply adore you",
She cried, "damn that was such a good time,
why can't all of life be as great as it was tonight?
And I wish it would all rhyme",
They dated for a while in a city folk style,
with martinis and oysters and taxis and bars,
But the romance wouldn't last, it was all in the past,
The Martini Cowboy had chosen the night,
He cried, "damn that was such a good time,
why can't all of life be as great as it was tonight",
And I wish it would all rhyme".
