Cow Pissin'
Troubles Like Rain: A Song of Resilience by Carson Jeffrey
Lyrics
I’ve got troubles coming down like a cow pissin' on a flat rock,
I am facing troubles that come relentlessly, much like a cow urinating on a flat rock.
Ain’t no sign of letting up anytime soon
There is no indication that these troubles will diminish any time soon.
And if I had a dollar for every time that I felt like that
If I had a dollar for every time I felt overwhelmed, I would have enough to escape with you.
Well I’d have enough to run away just me and you
The speaker suggests that having sufficient money would enable them to run away with someone special.
Complaining only makes me sound like a bluff
Complaining about the troubles only makes the speaker seem insincere.
Like an old bull all horn and no damn hook
Comparing the speaker's complaints to an old bull without substance or action.
Another day more bad weather, when will the sun bring another dollar,
Every day brings more challenges, wondering when financial improvement will come.
I’ll be alright, I’ll just fake it,
The speaker expresses a determination to be okay despite the challenges.
Oh and bet your ass I’ll make it,
The speaker asserts confidence in overcoming difficulties.
I’ll be alright, just as long as I’ve got you
The speaker believes they will be fine as long as they have the support of a particular person.
I’m a good man ain’t got no plans of changing my ways
The speaker describes themselves as a good person with no intention of changing.
Hold a gun to my head and I’ll still tell you the same
Even under duress, the speaker remains truthful about their character.
I may have a crooked smile but I promise that it’s honest
The speaker acknowledges having a flawed but honest smile.
But if stealing your hearts the charge then honey I’m to blame
If winning hearts is a crime, the speaker admits guilt.
Complaining only makes me sound like a bluff
Reiteration that complaining makes the speaker appear insincere.
Like an old bull all horn and no damn hook
Comparison of the speaker's complaints to an old bull without substance or action.
Another day more bad weather, when will the sun bring another dollar,
Continued struggle with bad circumstances, hoping for a financial breakthrough.
I’ll be alright, I’ll just fake it,
The speaker asserts that they will be fine by pretending if necessary.
Oh and bet your ass I’ll make it,
The speaker expresses confidence in overcoming challenges.
I’ll be alright, just as long as I’ve got you
The speaker believes they will be okay as long as they have the support of a particular person.
Well that cows still pissin', she’ll always be around
The persistence of troubles is likened to a cow that continues to urinate.
Troubles won’t change me, they ain’t gonna get me down
Challenges and problems will not change the speaker, and they won't be defeated by them.
Complaining only makes me sound like a bluff
Reiteration that complaining makes the speaker appear insincere.
Like an old bull all horn and no damn hook
Comparison of the speaker's complaints to an old bull without substance or action.
Another day more bad weather, when will the sun bring another dollar,
Continued struggle with bad circumstances, hoping for a financial breakthrough.
I’ll be alright, I’ll just fake it,
The speaker asserts that they will be fine by pretending if necessary.
Oh and bet your ass I’ll make it,

I’ll be alright, just as long as I’ve got you

Oh I’ll be alright, just as long as I’ve got you, ah
Reaffirmation that the speaker will be okay as long as they have the support of a particular person.
