Tilt Tab

Tilt 
 
                         
He was so strong, he was so bold
                               
When they made him they broke the mold
                                   
If he heads this way when the moon is slow
              
Come over and pray they'll turn the buffalo
                 
They'll turn the buffalo

There's a need to sleep in the shag of his stomach
Slide around his eye with your love in tow
If he heads this way don't you say hello
Get out of the way, they'll turn the buffalo
They'll turn the buffalo

? (   )
Our town, our town, do love a stampede
Stampede by my old jacket in the park
Someday I'll pick it up look for the label and whisper

Tilt, ain't got no no no
Tilt, got none at all
Tilt, ain't got no no no 

A mother waits as still as the moon light
Standing in long grass with her cold cold nose
What she feels so deep, she will never show
Baby don't you weep, they'll turn the buffalo
They'll turn the buffalo

Our town, our town...
