Lyrics

Magpie
 You're an early riser
 Magpie
 You're a bold chastiser
 Magpie
 Always waking up my wife and I
 You old coyote in the sky
 Magpie
 Some say you're a bold deceiver
 I say you're a true believer
 Magpie
 You know the west ain't never going to die
 Just as long as you can fly
 You travel all around these hills
 Like a gypsy
 I don't see the matter with that
 Your choice is meat for something to eat
 I don't have a problem with that
 You build a big house
 With a front and a back door
 And you want to be free
 Holy Moses magpie
 I am you - you are me
 Walk that walk
 Talk that talk
 Sing me a song of way long ago
 Was it out on the trail
 You got a beautiful tail
 Riding on the back of the white buffalo
 Did you cut a deal with the white buffalo?
 You hand all around these hills
 In the winter time
 Why in the hell would you want to do that
 If it was me I'd be out of here man
 Give me a couple of seconds
 And I'll grab my hat
 Ah, magpie, you're a pretty bird
 You just want to be free
 Holy Moses magpie
 I am you - you are me
