Space Wrangler

Widespread Panic

A little wrangler was born

I seen him squirming in the saddle all wet and warm

He's such a changeable form in his very first year



He rides on to wrangler school

With a slingshot and a saddlebag of hand-me-down tools

Doesn't want to look like a fool

Pass the jail without tears



Time machines, remembered scenes

That a wrangler rides through a passing stream

Time's replaced by a peaceful dream

Wrangler space



He reigns his pony to the gate of the school

Feather pens and inkwells of hand-me-down rules

Like trading a pony for an aging mule

He rides away without fear



Time machines, new routines

That a wrangler rides through a passing dream

And time's replaced by a peaceful stream

Space wrangler space



He gets off at a stranger's place

Where the girls dance different with familiar grace

He's knowing that he found the place

That pours the coldest beer



Skol, very cold beer

Cheers, to your friends so near

High, your dreams so clear

Raise another glass to the dreams so near
