D                            Bm

G                                    A
After all the rain we had I suppose it's not suprisin
D                                         Bm
Lookin out my back door the fields are all aflood

My poor old cows are standin up to their knees in mud
                CHORUS
D                                            G
Better do something quick boy Better do something fast
D                                          A
Better think of something or those poor cows wont last

D
Their standin at my back door now
        Bm
The sight gave me the shudders
G
Water lookin dark and cold
A
Swirlin round their udders
D
The weatherman said fine today
      Bm
But I know he's a liar
      G
The rain is commin down so hard
               A
And the waters gettin higher
          CHORUS

D
Standin in my bedroom now
Bm
Me with my dairy friends
G
Tryin to take some shelter
               A
from the storm that never ends
                 Middle bit
D                        A
Hear that rumble look at that flash
D                                   A
Waters gettin higher now better make a dash
D                      A
Is this a part of Gods big Plan
G                                         Bm                 A
Coz one dry week and their'll be a hosepipe ban

D
Standin on my rooftop now
      Bm
Me with my dairy herd
G
When comes landin on my head
A
Some strange kind of bird

D
He said to me mister can't you see
        Bm
That I'm all out of luck
G
I can do most anything
         A
But I wish I was a duck

D
Better do something quick boy
G
Better do something fast
D
Better think of something
      A
Or this old bird wont last

D
Gonna build an ark now
       Bm
For my bovine friends and me
G
Gonna build an ark now
A
From a big oak tree
D
But we need some kind of engine
      Bm
To make it go real fast
G                                                        A
So I'm gonna take that big old bird and tie him to the mast

Re: Poor Cow

Cool! I like it too. Maybe because I'm surrounded by farms and we've been drowning in excess rain this year.

When do we get to hear it?

Re: Poor Cow

KIR ... that is absolutely brilliant story-telling, with fantastic imagery. So visual, so heart-breaking, so very well done.

Wow ... just, wow.

Re: Poor Cow

I like this one it reminds me of the place I used to live in the UK when the rain was heavy and the lake in the field would come early to the edge of my garden.really good love it.

Re: Poor Cow

Love it!

Live in the "now" - a contentment of the moment - the past is gone - the future doesn't exist - all we ever really have is now and it's always "now".
