So, this is how it began...The Yeehaa Cowboys sprang to life from the pages of a Screenplay, titled of course, The Yeehaa Cowboys!

Having no money and no clout in the land of Hollywood North, we began our pitch with a lack of stuff that usually helps...success!

Along the path of despair we hit upon an idea so magical, so fantastical that it rejuvenated our cowboy spirits...why not create a band out of the script...and see what happens!

Ten years later...just kidding...about six months into our grand fable, a Toronto Theatre producer heard about this wacky cowpunk band with a script, read it, and produced what has now become legend, we think, in Toronto..."The Yeehaa Cowboys Stage Musical."

With a cast of over 30, we think, the stage musical had become a rousing success and helped us to spawn...yes we said spawn...our debut CD release, "Cowpunk Baby, Cowpunk!"

Vacaville is our tribute video to that enchanted theatrical time. Enjoy the Rabbi Ninjas. Yes, we said Rabbi Ninjas, Vlad Lupo, our honorary vampire cowboy, and the entire zany cast and crew that helped to make "The Yeehaa Cowboys Stage Musical" a success.

Thank You Very Much!

Tell me a lie                        
in that haze I'd decide                    
should I comfort you with tears            

Tell me a way                        
that allows me to say                    
I own everything you need                

Love
I'm sorry that it never gave you strength

Tell me a lie
in that space I'd reply
I'm already in your path

I see you
wandering through your days
and I think you don’t know me

And I feel
wretched and torn
delivered yet scorned
I'm a man that heeds your will

Tell me again
why I must pretend
that your last breath was mine

I see you
wandering through your days
and I think you don't know me

What if I said that I could act the part for you
wouldn't that change the rules
the words "I needed proof"                    
what if you said that I could live apart from you        
wouldn't that make me want to stay    

Could you see through my eyes
but I don't want to cry all night
yeah I think you don't own me

Could you steal more than time
but I don't want to hide all night
yeah I think you don't own me

I've got a date with an angel tonight
I've been waiting all my life
I've got a date with an angel tonight
She will make everything all right

and I'll be watching as the days grow cold
and I'll be dreaming as the nights grow old

My pretty angel cries
My pretty angel lies
when she tells me
it will be allright

Well I can tell you my name
that if I rode right into town
like a spirit in the night
I'd come to you without a sound

and if I coulda loved
and if I coulda left you far behind
and if I coulda been
and if I coulda been there

Oh you can hear my soul
cryin' on the radio
for your love
like a wailin' lonely ghost

and if I coulda loved
and if I coulda left you far behind
and if I coulda been
and if I coulda been there

I'm a yeehaa cowboy, I ride right through this lonely town
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, playin' my songs though no ones round'
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, and all I wanna be is by your side
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, take a bow with me tonight

Well I could tell you my name
in the whisper of a desert night
but I'm a slave to the voices
cause I'm a haunted man inside

and if I coulda loved
and if I coulda left you far behind
and if I coulda been
and if I coulda been there
baby....

I'm a yeehaa cowboy, I ride right through this lonely town
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, playin' my songs though no ones round'
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, and all I wanna be is by your side
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, take a bow with me tonight

and if I wanna find you baby
and if I wanna kiss you honey
all I gotta do is sing for you...

and if I coulda loved
and if I coulda left you far behind
and if I coulda been
and if I coulda been there
baby....

I'm a yeehaa cowboy, I ride right through this lonely town
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, playin' my songs though no ones round'
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, and all I wanna be is by your side
thank you very much
I'm a yeehaa cowboy, take a bow with me tonight

Yeehaa cowboy, Yeehaa cowboy
I said, I'm a Yeehaa Cowboy
Yippee ki yi yo, all the way to San Antonio
Thank you very much

See the lines on my hand                
feel them crack                    
hear my reasons change                
hope it's better than fate                
better not to compromise                
faith                            
I was not to ride                    
within my heart I adored                
yet I hold
I may not arrive                    
                                
And I hear you say                    
if your blue skies fall grey                
don't turn away                    

I'll make it easy
I'll pray
prey on your desire
hope its better than fear
better than another lie
faith
I can not sense time
let me go
set me free
maybe I could still arise

And I hear you say
if your blue skies fall grey
don’t turn away

And you drift into the pain
and you hope that you're the only one to dare
and you know that it's a trust                    
that dies                            
if you fall grey

Touch the skin that binds
it holds me to sin
if I taste your words
I’ll be the one to give in

And I hear you say
if your blue skies fall grey
don't turn away

I stayed awake                                    
just watching you asleep                    
and I can't fade away                    
can't say good-night                                    
    
Do you recall                        
how I begged to steal your heart            
but I just gave way                    
without a fight                        
                            
Your eyes were mine                    
I saw it in your gaze                    
and I knew                            
I knew                            
                            
The last time we were together                        
I kissed you                         
you kissed me forever                    
                        
All read and torn
I've ripped apart your words
and there's no meaning
there's no reply

Stay
and say it's never going to change
end this story with
the first line

Your eyes were tired
I saw it on your face
and I knew                        
I knew                            
            
The last time we were together                
I kissed you                         
you kissed me forever
The last time we were together                
I loved you                         
you loved me forever

Even if the darkest lie
saved you from the misery
I'd given you    
I'd step aside

I look back and I deny    
I was only sober
when I cheated you    
took your pride

The last time we were together                
I kissed you                         
you kissed me forever
The last time we were together                
I loved you                         
you loved me forever

I remember the day I saw you smile
you stole my thoughts and you put me back in my place
I turned and saw my friend looking at you
I turned right back and caught that look on your face

And I said to you
please be with me tonight
so I can say good-bye

When I see that look in their eyes
I just wanna cry
when I see them holding so tight
I just wanna cry

I didn't know that I'd be waiting for time
to tell me that I was gonna be second best
but you didn't say another word to me
instead you made me wait upon a fantasy

And I said to you
please be with me tonight
so I can say good-bye

When I see that look in their eyes
I just wanna cry
when I see them holding so tight
I just wanna cry

I'll send the message out to her
that I won't be the only fool
sitting back and lying to myself
dying every night
oh no you'll never make me cry

When I see that look in their eyes
I just wanna cry                   
when I see them holding so tight           
I just wanna cry

Walkin' along feelin' down            
used to have the number one band in town    
now I'm just a washed up fool            
lookin' for a hit, man ain't life cruel            
                        
Went to Mountain Records yesterday
said old man ya' got nothin' to say        
I'm searchin' for a melody everywhere        
a hook, a riff, whatever you can spare        
                        
I think about you every day            
I think about you every night                
I wonder why you left my side          
I think about you all the time            
all the lonely nights I cried
feelin' like I could have died            
now I've got the Twang, the Twang,         
the Twang!                    
                        
So I stormed right back to the record company    
looked em' in the eye and said             
"you better sign me!"                
I got the Twang you fraud             
and it's coming from above            
I got a song, a sound, the kids are gonna love
   
Well I've found myself a number one hit song    
every motherfucker wants to tag along        
this old man's a badass dude
with the glitter shirts and a Nashville attitude    
                        
I think about you every day            
I think about you every night            
I wonder why you left my side            
I think about you all the time            
all the lonely nights I cried            
feelin' like I could have died            
now I've got the Twang, the Twang,
the Twang!

I got a manger took me on a world tour        
made a ton of dough, now I’ll never be poor    
won a couple Grammy's, got a Puffy re-mix    
hit rock bottom sleepin' with the Dixie Chicks

I played the festivals with kids half my age
scared the shit outta me when they burned half the stage
man I tell ya they gotta' whole a lotta' pain
touring with the hip hop had me goin' insane

I think about you every day            
I think about you every night                
I wonder why you left my side          
I think about you all the time            
all the lonely nights I cried
feelin' like I could have died            
now I've got the Twang, the Twang,         
the Twang!        

So you're probably wondering
how this song's gonna end
why I quit the music biz all over again
the Twang up and left me right in a flash
cause' I got too greedy with all of that cash

Booze, and broads, and gambling debts
I spent my last $20 bucks
on a hooker in fishnets
let this be a lesson to you
one and all
If you get caught up in it
you're bound to catch a fall

I think about you every day            
I think about you every night                
I wonder why you left my side          
I think about you all the time            
all the lonely nights I cried
feelin' like I could have died            
now I've got the Twang, the Twang,         
the Twang!

This is the ballad of the country music pharaoh
He lives in Texas, may not be Egypt, it sure ain't Ontario
He is the King of his domain, the Sphinx of cowboys
He has a four wheel drive for a chariot
yeah he's a good old boy

One day he came home with hole in his head
he said,
"Baby I think maybe we got some kind of worry,
get the doggies, grab 'em round,
call my lawyer up in town,
I fear soon I may be dead,
and in my will I want it read....

If I die, shoot my horse
kill my dog and my wife of course
oh., bury me in my pick-up truck
cause in the afterlife, you know my ford can't suck

Oh please make sure that in my tomb
I’ve got my ten gal hat and my rhinestone boots
I'll need my six gun shooter t'keep the devil at bay
I'm gonna nail that sucker, yippeee-ka-yi-yay....."

Then he lay down, tried to soothe his nagging doubts
played his guitar one last time but found no twang in the sound
"Oh woe is me, I can't believe, my time has come my final grief
but I'll take you all along with me, cause I'm the Pharaoh, yeah that's me!

If I die, shoot my horse
kill my dog and my wife of course
oh., bury me in my pick-up truck
cause in the afterlife, you know my ford can't suck

Oh please make sure that in my tomb
I've got my ten gal hat and my rhinestone boots
I’ll need my six gun shooter t’keep the devil at bay
I'm gonna nail that sucker, yippeee-ka-ya-yay....."

I'm your savior from above
Now baby, that's a mighty genuflection you got

And if my love light blinds ya
You can wear my shades
And if you’re lonely don't worry, baby
for you my heart won't break   

Yeah...

Hunka Hunka burnin' love
Is all you gotta say

And I'll come your way
I'll give my soul for a piece of yours to keep
Drip your honey wet and sweet
In your sugar bowl so deep
I'm a sucker for your fusion, baby
What a good place to be

Hunka Hunka burnin' love
Is all you gotta say
Hunka Hunka burnin' love
And I'll come your way
I'll give my soul for a piece of yours to keep
Drip your honey wet and sweet
In your sugar bowl so deep
I'm a sucker for your fusion, baby
What a good place to be
