Cowboy of St Bartholomew

from So Many Funerals by Maynard and the Musties

about

Gay panhandler love in the big city

lyrics

Well I know this bro named Cowboy Mo
he lived down on the street below
seems he got a hold of my whole heart through
he's ugly as sin and beneath his grin
he's dartin' his eyes and lickin' his chin
& he know's I'll be comin' by again

Now I fell in love with him
& we live outside this church that lets us in
we kiss before the priests of St Bartholomew
& I never felt excitement til my ass touched that church pew

we kiss in line for soup sometimes
huddle under the blanket sipping' wine
Mo holds out his arm and bums a dime
I'm never going home again
Mo and the street are my best friends
Hope momma knows I'm coin' fine

cuz I fell in love with him in that soup line
& hold his hand while he spare-changes dimes
I'm his and for what it's worth he's mine
& Saint Bartholomew is our idea of a swinging time
