I was sittinand' in a bar room just drinking my beer when a cowboy came over and he said loud and clear andquot;youand've been seen with my wife now i want your life. we can do it in here or we can do it outside.andquot; well iand'm a meek minded fellow thatand's never been yellow so i stepped outside and kicked him in the crotch. well it slowed him down but when he came around he stomped on me and then he stomped on my watch.
Chorus: john cameron swayze i know this sounds crazy but my wrist watch is busted and i canand't understand. a cowboy stomped it flat and i freaked out over that now i feel naked with it gone from my hand
Recitation:
oh, john cameron, me and that watch had been together 13 years. itand's been shot at, dipped in beer, one time i even tied it to my motor boat and drove it up to the beach. people thought i was crazy john cameron but i knew youand'd understand. iand've hocked everything i own but i can never hock that watch because itand's never let me down. besides, the pawn shop would never pay me any money for it.
Resume singing in a ballad style:
so when that cowboy stomped it flat i freaked out over that. i came up off the ground and i beat him fair and square. but he couldnand't take a lickinand' and now heand's stopped tickinand'. and now i am headinand' for the electric chair.
Second chorus: john cameron swayze i know this sounds crazy but my wrist watch is busted beyond repair. a cowboy stomped it flat and i freaked out over that and now i am headed to the electric chair.
Recitation:
that cowboyand's wife came over to see me the other day, john cameron, and she told me that she and i were just going to ride off into the sunset together. not only that but she bought me a brand new watch. a bullava. i told her to stick it in her ear!
(repeat second chorus and fade)
