...But I Was Cool!

I always live by the, golden rule
 Whatever happens, ha, don't blow your cool!
 You gotta have nerves of steel
 And never show folks how you, honestly feel
 I lived all my life this way, ha
 For example, take yesterday:
 I breeze home happy bringin' her my pay
 Her note read ...so long savvy, I haven't gone away!
 An' I threw myself down across our empty bed
 An' this is what I said:
 Ooo shhhhiiiii ooow ooow ooow
 What? Oh what are you gonna do with me?
 Ooo wow uh
 But I was cool!
 So I "one for the roaded" at a all night bar
 I wound up so loaded, I tore up my car
 The judge threw the book at me,
 An' when I read, the sentence there, I said:
 "Oow! Please oooow ooow, please I got to know, I got to know
 What? what went wrong?
 I don't underst... I oh a,
 But I was cool!
 So I said she's the only one, that I have to pay
 And I found her an' pulled my gun, an' fired point blank
 The shot whistled right past that woman's head
 An' I killed my hound dog, dead!
 Oooooow, ruff ruff, rrr, rrr, rrr, rur, rur, rur
 As they carried me away
 I was overheard to say,
 "Be cool, be cool, stay cool, be cool!"
