Lavender Cowboy

Vaquero Lavanda

Lavender Cowboy

Era solo un vaquero lavanda,He was only a lavender cowboy,
Con dos pelos en su pecho,The hairs on his chest were two,
Pero deseaba seguir a los héroesBut he wished to follow the heroes
Y pelear como los hombres de verdad.And fight like the he-men do.

Pero estaba interiormente preocupadoBut he was inwardly troubled
Por un sueño que no le daba descanso,By a dream that gave him no rest,
Que iría con sus héroes a la acciónThat he'd go with his heroes in action
Con solo dos pelos en su pecho.With only two hairs on his chest.

Primero probó muchos tónicos capilares,First he tried many a hair tonic.
Se los frotaba cada noche.'Twas rubbed in on him each night.
Pero aún cuando se miraba en el espejoBut still when he looked in the mirror
Esos dos pelos siempre estaban a la vista.Those two hairs were ever in sight.

Pero con un espíritu indomableBut with a spirit undaunted
Salió a luchar,He wandered out to fight,
Como un caballero andante de antañoJust like an old-time knight errant
Para ganar la batalla por la justicia.To win combat for the right.

Luchó por el honor de Red NellieHe battled for Red Nellie's honor
Y limpió un nido de bandidos,And cleaned out a holdup's nest
Murió con sus seis pistolas humeantesHe died with his six guns a-smoking
Con solo dos pelos en su pecho.With only two hairs on his chest.
