Hippie Girls

Song #348   |   11/13/05  |  CD: Live At Watering Pond

I love you hippie gurls
With your Birkenstocks and dread lock curls
And your smoky scent of patchouli
You drive me crazy with your unshaved legs
This old cowboy’s not ashamed to beg
For your tender company

Lately while I make my rounds
Toss and turn at night on the cold hard ground
Dreaming of White Mountains pressed against a rising moon
When I think of you I get blue
I’m so old and you’re so new
Perhaps the best that I can do is sing this tune

Refrain:
Hippie Gurls, I love ya
Hippie gurls I want to hug ya….
Hippie gurls you rule my world

You remind me of my horse
Although he’s a better listener of course
But not by much, I will admit
You’ve got a smaller nose and whiter teeth
With fewer whiskers and only two feet
And you chomp a lot less on the bit

Refrain:

Hippie gurls,
You sure beat all those dippy girls
With their high heeled airs and attitudes.
Those girls who need a man to hold their doors
And buy them stuff in fancy stores
Wearing thongs instead of proper drawers
Well, Those corporate dudes can have ‘em.

Refrain:

Riding in the saddle all day in the rain
I’m too much of a man too complain
Besides I’ve got my fantasies…
Tattoos on your nubile bodies
Piercings, in places that I’d love to see
My partner Slim says you’re experts on sense-you-al-ah-tee

Hippie gurls please take me home
This ole hand no longer needs to roam
Out on the open range alone
Hope you don’t mind that I got no teeth
Or smell just like a saddle seat
As I recite my cowboy poems

Refrain:

(optional verse)

Hippie gurls
You rule my universe
And when I’m feeling bad you help me feel less worse
And when they take me
Out of here in a hearse
They’ll carve on my stone these final words:

Been singing the chorus since the first day I heard it…

I sh*t you not when I say I’ve been singing the chorus to Honest Rock since the first day I heard it. I sing this every single day. Many times a day. Seriously. It’s like a mantra to me. It soothes me:-)

Gene Moore

I loved the song and listened to it 3 times….

Hi Mark, I just had to tell you this. I emailed my 3 granddaughters the song you wrote who are sisters with the youngest being 11 years old, has cerebral palsy and is very smart, is able to talk, very funny, uses a computer, is able to write, now is learning to play drums, emails me ‘Thanks. I do.’ I loved the song and listened to it 3 times.

For me these songs are transformational lessons in self-love…

Dear Mark, THANK YOU for sending *Spark & Flame*!!!! This CD certainly is a compilation of Conscious Love Songs! As I listen I am transported to memory after memory past, present and future, fulfilled and unfulfilled. I was flooded with many different emotions. I cried, laughed, held my breath and also breathed deep heart-centered breaths of connection to the Divine. I feel joy, grief, sadness, compassion, love, awe, freedom, kindness, gratitude and appreciation. For me these songs are transformational lessons in self-love, releasing, acceptance for what was, what is and who I am. Knowing that I am enough and that I am Divinely Loved.

Your song was just perfect to start my day…

Mark, your song ‘Freedom (It’s Been  Long Road)’ was just perfect to start my day. I LOVE IT!  Thank you, Thank you.  Blessings to you and much gratitude for your musical gift.

Judy

You have put a grown man in tears…

Mark, this song and message really hit home for me today. You have put a grown man in tears. Thank You for what you do. Sometimes I think you sound kind of cheesy, and then others, I think you are a genius, and I’m beginning to realize that you actually care about helping people. So hard to “get out of your own way” sometimes…thanks for the reminder.

Jeremy

You write some great songs!

Hi Mark, You write some great songs! I really enjoyed listening to all of them on Spark and Flame. Thank you for all that you do. Keep up the good work! All the best.
