You know, I wouldn’t mind if I
Were living in a cow kind of world
Green grass and red dirt roads
A sky overhead with cloudy swirls
Just eating and having little chats
You don’t have a single care
Life is gentle and relaxing
At least no problems you’re aware
Following one another sometimes
Like to the shade or out of the rain
Or to the grain trough or pile of hay
They always want the very same
Moms and aunts share in calf-sittin’
While the babies take a little snooze
Everyone getting along it seems
Don’t feel they have a thing to lose
Yes, I think it would be a good life
If in my next time around I was hurled
Into the life that seems quite satisfying
In a comforting cow kind of world!
