Willie Nelson has released “Cowboys Are Frequently, Secretly (Fond of Each Other)”, which may be the first gay cowboy song by a major recording artist. The song, which debuted Tuesday on Howard Stern’s satellite radio show, features choppy Tex-Mex style guitar runs and Nelson’s deadpan delivery of lines like, “What did you think all them saddles and boots was about?” and “Inside every cowboy there’s a lady who’d love to slip out” and “if sexiness was corn, your ass would be Iowa.” Amazingly, I only made that last line up.
But what could be hotter than the combination of Willie Nelson and homo-erotic love? I had no idea country music was full of so much rampant homesexuality. I guess the ten-gallon hats and chaps should’ve tipped me off. That, and being hit on buy some guy calling himself the Bone Ranger.

Someone’s cashing in on Brokeback Mountain’s success…
Sheva | February 15, 2006 at 4:45 pm
Willie just kept on tokin and talking. Figured something’s gotta go his way and help him pay off the IRS.
That’s one smokin injun who knows how to cash in.
Next you’ll have Neil Young signing:
Wish we could be,
on bareback mountain
with our 501 buttholes on….
Yall get back to bareback mountain now, hear.

Oh joy, a new gay joke for the entire internet to overuse instead of Brokeback Mountain.

Remember Willie Nelson in Half-Baked?
Remember Snoop Dogg in Half-Baked?

I always thought the title “The Redheaded Stranger” sounded like a gay superhero…

I bet he is a bottom and he likes his braids pulled. Giddy up!!

I’d hit it!

Finally music I can relate too. I am tired of ridin’ and ropin’ in utter shame. Thanks to Willie I can come out of the barn with my pants down, proud.
P.S. I love chaps (don’t be afraid)
frozen_jesus | February 15, 2006 at 5:33 pm
Damn, the first thing I thought of was Rev Horton Heat too.
SMF121490 | February 15, 2006 at 5:35 pm
This is almost as bad as when I found out Rob Halford from Judas Priest was gay.
But, then Willy was probably loaded when he wrote that song and still doesn’t know what happened.
HollyJ | February 15, 2006 at 5:50 pm
And here I thought the Buttless Leather Chaps chatroom was for bikers in studs and black leather masks.
Spindoc | February 15, 2006 at 5:58 pm
And NOBODY has commented that his first name is WILLIE.
that-dog-is-shifty-eyed | February 15, 2006 at 5:58 pm
Think again Holly J. “Cowboys like smokey old pool rooms and rim jobs from school boys….little warm puppies and hitting up Chip N’Dale’s late in the night”

“In other news, it was discovered today that Nashville is, in fact, the world’s largest closet.”

Willie’s just singin’ what we’re all thinkin’
LoneWolf | February 15, 2006 at 6:16 pm
Kinda gives new meaning to “Cowboys ain’t easy to love and they’re harder to hold”.
No wonder mamas shouldn’t let their babies grow up to be cowboys – sounds like it’s a good way to get ass-raped.
Yee Haw.
hafaball | February 15, 2006 at 6:29 pm
it’s just that cowboys have been beating up and killing homos for so long, they realized they’re homos too. it’s all in the Evolutionary Law of Gays, written by Darwin.

LadeeBug are you a ladee or a dude?? Just wondering…

You guys are way to funny.

Breanny | February 15, 2006 at 7:24 pm
Willie didn’t write this song, and he released it after one of his friends came out of the closet recently. Apparently, in the opinion of a 107.1 dj in Austin, it’s willie’s way of saying he’s cool with his friend. I love WILLIE NELSON!!! coolest guy ever, especially in concert.
blackblackheart | February 15, 2006 at 7:55 pm
Hehehe…
“Bareback Mounting”..
For those of you who don’t know what that is, google it… but not in image search.
KissMyIS350 | February 15, 2006 at 8:36 pm
With his long braids, I definitely see Willie as the catcher in any homo-erotic relationship.
ESQ | February 15, 2006 at 8:47 pm
In response to comment #8 – LMAO!
I think Willie is sad now that he was rejected by Jessica Simpson, he thought she was serious when she flirted with him in her video, “These Boots are Made for Walkin’” He now has gone the other way, WAAAAAAY other way now.
I was not mocking gays, I have some that are friends just in case some hater wants to try and jump all over my comment.

PKClover | February 15, 2006 at 9:52 pm
I bet every cowboy who has ever camped out with Willy, or smoked some bud with him on a hot summer’s night is now shitting their pants. Because yes my friends, he was checking out your ass as you rolled up your sleeping bag. And now he’s singing songs about it.
mnyc | February 15, 2006 at 9:54 pm
That song was originally sung by Pansy Division, a gay punk band from SF, on the album “Pileup” in 1995.
debs | February 15, 2006 at 9:56 pm
Every cowboy Willy has camped with has been a former date of PKClover.
xavierout | February 15, 2006 at 10:02 pm
I’m outraged and shocked, etc.
Hi Nikki Poe!
PKClover | February 15, 2006 at 10:14 pm
Glad to know they made it to the “top” one way or another Debs. You wouldn’t be able to take the hint if your man was wearing this:

Jacq | February 15, 2006 at 10:43 pm
One song… “Mama’s Don’t Let Your Babies Grow-Up to be Cowboys”
Seeing him Friday at the SA rodeo, it will be embarrassing to witness hot homo-cowboy sex since I’ll be with my dad.
HughJorganthethird | February 15, 2006 at 11:35 pm
#32 mnyc You are my new hero.I don’t want to know how you knew about this song and the Pansy Division but I went to AMG to check it out and of course it’s true, all hilariously true.
I would recomend the uninformed check out the track listing for “Pileup” . Way too funny.

——————–
And he has a front tooth gap. With this campy song he finally has ALL the ingredients for a gay icon.
But seriously, I love Willie. All you cynics can say he’s cashing in via Broke Back Mountain but I appauld him as a voice speaking up against the sickening homophobia of our current president and his administration, (note: expection = Cheney)
Also Ladybug is my idol for her(?) post.
debs | February 16, 2006 at 6:14 am
PKClover, your man has a pimple on his behind :(
rachel | February 16, 2006 at 6:33 am
I’m a cowboy
on a steel dick I ride
I want it
Up my behind
Want it, up my behind
veggi | February 16, 2006 at 6:56 am
Not a funny comment here- I’m from Tennessee and am around a lot of real cowboys, none that are gay. My husband wears cowboy hats, boots, chaps (when it is cold- they do serve a purpose) , the whole git up… however, this song and movie may make him decide to wear a size larger wranglers….but really, Willie is just liberal and props to him for making some homophobs realize real men can be ok with homosexuality….
Fatty Boom-Batty | February 16, 2006 at 7:38 am
I’m okay with gay guys, as long as they don’t touch. I heard that shit is contagious.
Fatty Boom-Batty | February 16, 2006 at 7:40 am
I left out the word “me” after “touch” on purpose. I didn’t want any jokes about it…I’ll just keep touching myself thank you very much!
CheekyChops | February 16, 2006 at 8:38 am

CheekyChops | February 16, 2006 at 8:39 am
#41 – Your husband, he is a gay.

He is a gay? What does that even mean?
veggi | February 16, 2006 at 9:19 am

ThirstyRanger | February 16, 2006 at 9:35 am
#40 – HILARIOUS! I’m at work and you made me laugh out loud! WELL DONE! Although, would have liked to hear a “lube” reference in there! ;)
Go Sip | February 16, 2006 at 9:56 am
A gap in his teeth, grease in his braids
He is just a Cowboy who wants to get laid
Not by a Cowgirl but by a Cowboy
He wants to “make naughty” and use some sex toys,
In reference to #40, Cowboys like it hard,
They dont use no KY, lube or pig lard
As I mentioned before in comment number eight,
He likes his braids pulled, he thinks it feels great.
He likes to fondle the knob on his saddle,
He likes it when you give his gray flabby ass a paddle,
Whether it is man or woman he just craves the touch,
He cant “F” his horse cause that pony weighs too much.
FEMINEM
MystressJade | February 16, 2006 at 10:09 am
Go Sip, I’ve heard that song played by a band in a Country bar in Kennesaw, GA….
That is too fucking funny….Ya got skills..songwritin’ skills that is…
