Got Laid in Cheyenne


I got laid in Cheyenne
100 miles from home
Shopping trip for lingerie
And other stuff I guess
Merchant knew your name & size
And the color of your eyes
Stay tonight Leave early
I said yes

I took a bath
Wore another man's fancy clothes
Not dinner but dinner party
They came to hear my story
2 cowboys as married with a ranch
How do we manage to survive
Lots of gunpowder & lead
Target practice on Sunday

Gays got guns too
Like lipstick 
We know how to use 'em

Everybody laughs
We drink wine glass after glass
Couples tell their stories
How they met & fell in love
Later they find a quiet spot
Darkness fills the windows
No travel at night for lady men

I stay awake despite fatigue
Packing for the trip home 
Merchant finds me 
Has a message for my boyfriend
He knows his name & size
The color of his eyes
Deliver this message exactly
It has no words

A kiss on my temple 
My cheek My lips My nose 
My neck A warm hug
He feels me up
We disrobe
Parts of the story I can show
But not write down
And never be able to speak it
We sleep & snuggle
I wake up & doze 100 times
At dawn I smell the coffee
P.S. Farewell kiss to my lover

I promise to deliver the message
Precisely without a word spoken
100 miles from home
I got laid in Cheyenne.
