Grant Peeples: Music
All Hat And No Cattle (click for lyrics)
(Late Governor of Texas, Ann Richards, made a comment about the President. Grant steals the line and writes a song about the poor guy.)
I know this fellow, thinks he’s a Texan
Likes to wear a big ol Stetson
He talks a real tough line
Got a silver spoon stuck up where the sun don’t shine
He’s got these little beady eyes, and big soft hands
Sees himself as a John Wayne man
So you tell me why we put him in the saddle
All hat and no cattle
Ivy League, Junior League, absent without leave
Rodeo buckle and boots
He’s the kinda fella starts a fight in a bar
Then he stands back and holds everybody’s coats
With his smirk and his strut, and his arms all akimbo
He’s something akin to a cowboy bimbo
So you tell me, what’s he doing saddle
All hat and no cattle.
He’s a vacation specialist
Whenever he reads you can see him move his lips
Well this is the dude that we put up in the saddle
All hat and no cattle.
Ivy League, Junior League, absent without leave
Rodeo buckle and boots
He’s the kinda fella starts a fight in a bar
Then steps back and holds everybody’s coats
With his smirk and his strut, and his arms all akimbo
He’s something akin to a cowboy bimbo
So why the hell did we put him in the saddle
All hat and no cattle.
