Here’s an explanation of this one:
This guy I know was a DJ on an oldies station (Gold), then abruptly left to be a DJ on a country station (Hank). He loves food, and had recipes posted on these radio stations’ Web sites. One of the recipes was for a concoction called “Kitty Litter Cake,” which I am told ends up looking just like a box of kitty litter that has been used by the cat (think of tapered Tootsie Rolls and you get a clue). I am so sorry.
Kitty Litter Cowboy (Tribute to Scott Roddy)
(Parody of Mel Tillis’ Coca-Cola Cowboy)
You used to spin all that gold
But “Records” got sort of old
And you got an offer you could not refuse
So you left Johnson County
And got a job downtowny
Playing country music on Hank in the afternoon
And we say….
(Chorus)
You’re just a Kitty Litter cowboy
You got a goofy laugh and Webster’s big ol’ ears
“When You’re Hot You’re Hot” hangs on your office wall
And eating carrot cake brings you to tears
You know you’re never alone
Cause you take requests on the phone
And you let your listeners vote on “Hank or Stank”
You put recipes online
And it don’t cost a dime
To find out how to make Kitty Litter Cake
I say….
You’re just a Kitty Litter cowboy
You got a goofy laugh and Webster’s big ol’ ears
“When You’re Hot You’re Hot” hangs on your office wall
And drinking peach milkshakes brings you to tears
Guitar solo
We say…
You’re just a Kitty Litter cowboy
You got a goofy laugh and Webster’s big ol’ ears
“When You’re Hot You’re Hot” hangs on your office wall
And eating anything brings you to tears
Yes, eating anything brings you to tears
