Joe Dassin – Yellowstone Cowbear lyrics

Hey look at me I’m a dancing bear
And I bow to a gypsy king
He taught me everything y know
And he plays a mean tambourine

So he got a gold ring in his ear
I got a brass one in my nose
For any mother’s son for any mamma’s cub
That’s the way it goes

I like my life it’s all I know
There’s nothing that I lack
So why do I dream
Of the bark of a tree
To scratch my back
And figure out
Why I groove on rainbow trout

Dreams dreams dreams
Recurrent dreams
Why do I have these dreams
Right foot in
And right foot out
That’s what it’s all about
Dreams dreams

I watch the world go by
Thru the bars of my mobil home
Why ain’t I satisfied
What do you mean by yellowstone

Now he’s got a foulard made of silk
I got a collar I’ve got a chain
But he drives our car he pays my bills
I only dance when it doesn’t rain

Like any bear I ever seen
Midway’s where I was raised
But why do I dream
Of sweet running streams
So cool to wade and
Tell me why
I get so sleepy in wintertime

Dreams dreams dreams
Recurrent dreams
Why do I have these dreams
Left foot in
And left foot out
That’s what it’s all about
Dreams dreams

He’s got a lunch box I got a pail
I climb a ladder he plays the drum
He got a moustache I got a tail
We just doing like we always done

Two steps is all I knew
Two steps’s o.k. by me
But why all these dreams
Of rolling around
On daisy greens
I got no clue
Just this feeling of déjà vu

Dreams dreams dreams…
