Caballero

My friend mentioned cowboy chords, so I made a cowboy song. I fully intended to add a bunch of LSDJ elements but time got the best of me. If I add the chip elements in the future, I'll upload it to my soundcloud.

Lyrics:
Near the desert where there is no light
Some cattle rustlers gave me a fright
They said, "If you value your life, get out of our sight"

Yipee-kai-yay-kai-yo, Caballero

I was stuck fast, didn't know what to do
When out of nowhere, like a bolt from the blue
He appeared and said, "I'll rescue you"

Yipee-kai-yay-kai-yo, Caballero

The fight was fast, the man was swift
Before a single gun they could lift
The rustlers lay in their own blood and spit

Yipee-kai-yay-kai-yo, Caballero
Yipee-kai-yay-kai-yo, Caballero

The mellow vocals + the manic rhythm give such a strange, exciting vibe! Punk Western...a genre of film/music/anything that I would happily dive into smile

Thanks guys, I'm trying to experiment with different styles and genres for weekly beats and having a blast doing so. If you like this style, maybe check out The Drunken Cuddle. I used them and Cash's Riders in the Sky as inspiration.
