Lyric sheets: Cowboy of the counties

Ahm proud t'be a wrangler from East Anglia

Where real men still crah intew their beer

From Yarmouth down to Maldon

And north-waist t' Saffron Walden

Them cowboys never hung their guns up here

Jest went intew construction

Or clearin' drains bah suction

They walk away from rubble if they cay-n

Then take the cash and use it

On maudlin country music

Or tahger-skin acrylics for their vay-n
