about

Larry Olson, David Brown and I had fun making this song up. Thanks to this song, I’m known as the ‘Cow Pie Guy’ to kids in many parts of the USA.

lyrics

School bell rings, I'm racing out the door
Got my mind on something that I've been waiting for
I want a tall glass of milk and a stack of oreo's
There's something in my driveway with a big slimey nose

There's a cow parked in my driveway
Plain as it could be
There's a cow parked in my driveway
Would someone please help me

So I picked up my books and I picked up my jaw
I ran into the house to tell mom what I saw
There's a note on the 'fridge: out of milk, love mom
I'm gone to the market and I won't be long

There's a cow parked in my driveway
A thought just came to me
There's a cow parked in my driveway
Maybe there's milk for free

So I called up Billy and I called up Sue
I've got a cow in my driveway and I don't know what to do
Milk comes out of cows but I don't know where to start
Cause there's too many handles and there's too many parts

There's a cow parked in my driveway
Come on over and see
There's a cow parked in my driveway
Come figure this out with me

So we cranked on her tail and we patted her nose
We blew in her horns and we tickeled her toes
Billy pulled this and Susie pulled that
But all that happened was a big ker-splat

Now there's a cowpie in my driveway
That's all she gave today
There's a cowpie in my driveway
That's all I have to say

James Hersch Minneapolis, Minnesota

I live on this piece of prairie. I'm passionate and dedicated to writing songs in hopes of singing them for people. I don't think I could continue without both ends of that process. Create then hope. It's here I write songs, and here I wait to sing them for others. ... more
