Lyrics:
Moon so bright, my eyes are weepingElectrified tide of brilliant lightI’m venturing out, through the pounding ocean Psilocybin speaks to my deepest mind
Aw Yeah! Lord my deepest mind, yeahLord my deepest mind, yeahThe waves call my name RIDE ON! Space CowboySmoking that kine, high stepping through the night/sky
Stars all align to the home of my heroesand the Milky Way, she’s is a friend of mineShe's a friend of mine, yeah Lord a friend of mine
Quiet my soul to laser focusTame the wild seas for your son tonightAmphitheater formed by clouds above meLaugh as I drop into the perfect ride
Aw Yeah! A perfect ride, yeah
The waves call my name RIDE ON! Space CowboySmoking that kine, high stepping through the night/sky
Stars all align to the home of my heroesand the Milky Way, she’s is a friend of mineShe's a friend of mine, yeah Lord a friend of mine
Waves so high, my body’s peaking Psilocybin ride through electric nightsMan I’ve made my peaceWith the pounding oceanAnd the milky way, she says she’s a friend of mine.
Ohh Yeah! She’s a friend of mind, yeah
The waves call my name RIDE ON! Space CowboySmoking that kine, high stepping through the night/sky
Stars all align to the home of my heroesand the Milky Way, she’s is a friend of mineShe's a friend of mine, yeah Lord a friend of mine
I stand with my old guitar, to you I’ll be faithfulJust give me little action every now and thenAnd when I pluck upon these steel stringsIt all comes to a stand stillMy love song’s sung to the southern wind
To the southern wind
About the Song:
"Space Cowboy" is a shout out to all the cosmic cowgirls and cowboys from East to West. All summer long, the band has been playing this new funky new jam to our local fanbase. It tells the story of a local surf break in Encinitas that we sometimes surf by moonlight. A few times, psychedelics were involved, the Milky Way stars exploded around us, our imaginations were set on fire, and the sky's constellations came to life.
Such is the life and times of a soul surfing space cowboy. Enjoy.
About the Live Video:As with previous shows, I’m going to release a song a week until the complete show is uploaded and archived on Substack. This concert is being released in support of the new single “Perpetual Change” (released on November 8, 2024). We started video taping and recording our live shows consistently in 2023, when I took over the live sound. Prior to that the recording sound quality was a bit spotty.
