"Cowboy Song" is a contemporary art song for baritone voice and piano. Within the score, there are many different musical cues for the singer to suggest different acting choices. For example, triplet figures are used as a motive for the cowboy, and staccato figures are used on the line, "O the townsfolk talk to see me walk six inches off the ground." Only nine pages, this song just "rolls along."
