No, I don't think so Rob. It's an old country song I think. Chorus kinda goes like this:
Good bye old desert rat, you half crazy wild cat, you knew where it was at, what lifes all about.
Your a saver of old catalogues, king of the prairie dog, success is survival, and you worked it out.....
But thanks anyway
Good bye old desert rat, you half crazy wild cat, you knew where it was at, what lifes all about.
Your a saver of old catalogues, king of the prairie dog, success is survival, and you worked it out.....
But thanks anyway
You know...all I did was copy your text into Google.
GOODBYE OLD DESERT RAT By Michael Murphy
She sits on the front porch of the old house that stands scorched Under the sunstroke of the desert day that choked her old man who fell in the sun.With rattlesnakes and keepsakes, old boxes of cornflakes,Grammaphones and gemstones, and three unclaimed doorframes,And bleached bones and rocks by the ton.
CHORUS Goodbye old desert rat, you half crazy wildcat You knew where it was at, what life's all about You saver of catalogs, king of the prairie dogs Success is survival and you toughed it out, you toughed it out. You old loudmouth hound, you kept the kids spellbound, Half crazy and sunbaked, you earned your own grubstake; By breakin' your back all day long. With junk art and dump carts, old Model-T partsFrustrated, outdated and uneducated At eighty you still wrote good songs.
CHORUS
</PRE>

Desert Rat
</CENTER>She sits on the front porch of the old house that stands scorched
Under the sun stroke of a desert day that choked
Her old man who fell in the sun
With rattlesnakes and keepsakes, old boxes of corn flakes
Gramophones and gemstones, and three unclaimed doorframes
And bleached bones and rocks by the ton
Goodbye old desert rat, you half crazy wildcat
You knew where it was at, what life's all about
He saver of catalogs, king of the prairie dogs
Success is survival, and you toughed it out,
You toughed it out.
The old out loudmouth rock hound
You kept the kids spellbound
Half crazy and sub backed
You earned your own grubstake
By breaking your back all day long
With junk art and dump carts, old model-t parts
Frustrated, outdated and un-educated
At 80 your still wrote good songs
So goodbye old desert rat, you half crazy wildcat
You knew where it was at, what life's all about
Oh you savers of whole earth catalogs, kings of the prairie dogs
Success is survival; we'll all tough it out
Yes we'll all tough it out
