E
Well Long Eared Drifter riding ‘cross the plain.

E
Nobody'd ever seen him, nobody knew his name.

D                              A
When he stormed into town and reached

                        E   D
For some filtered water.

And some carrot nibblers.

E
Well a pretty little filly stopped the stranger and she said,

D                                       A
But the stranger just shook his head and said,

                        E
"I’ll have a nicoise salad.

        Am      E
'Cause there's good carbs and bad carbs and every cowboy knows,

Am      E
The carbs from fruits and vegetables will help you fit your clothes.

D
Speaking of which I’m gonna need ,

A       E
Some more carrot nibblers.”

E
(single strums)       G

Am              E
He had gristle in his teeth and diabetes in his eyes.

D       A
He said "Bart, you and me's gonna square off,

                E
Over a yogurt parfait."

Am                                   Em
But Bart scooped up the woman and he took off riding hard,

Am                                      Em
He took her to a taco stand that makes everything with lard.

Am                                            F
He ordered sixteen tacos made with bullets, beef and flour,

Em                                          B
He said “Girl, you're gonna eat these even if it takes an hour.”

E
Well that's when that old stranger came a-riding up fast,

D                                      A
"This taco party's over," said the stranger with a drawl,

E
"You eat that junk, you'll jack up your bad cholesterol.

D               A
And one more thing buddy - you forgot your parfait.”

D                        A      E
As when you're fighting evil every healthy cowboy knows,

D                      A        E
You gotta keep your blood sugar from getting too low.

      D                         A
'Cause if you don't you better know, Joe.

                      E
You’re gonna get real sleepy.

E
Well, Bart just laughed and said "I don't need that trash,

D                             A                                    E
And I'd mow you down right now if I wasn't feeling so sluggish.”

        Am                                         Em
The stranger pushed that parfait towards him and he stared Bart down,

        Am              Em
And a hush and a chill fell across the town.

D                               A
And everybody froze as Bart reached

                         E
And took a bite of his parfait.

       D                 A          E
Well Bart’s cheeks got rosy and his hair regained its sheen.

         D         A                    E
He said "It’s my sugar intake that's been making me so mean.

D                                     A
Speaking of which stranger won't you share some of those carrot nibblers?"

E
And now two cowboys ride across that dusty land,

D       A
And one thing you better understand, man,

D       A
They hardly ever get sleepy.

D       A
They also enjoy stir-fry.

D       A
They carefully control their portions.

D       A
And they keep food journals.

D       A
And they share their nibblers.
