V-1
How now,
Old cow.
Is my hand like silk?
As I try to get milk.
Are you in a rage?
Cause I know not your age?
Will me, you kick,
Will at me you lick?
Chorus
How now,
Old cow?
Will now come your glory,
Shinning in your very own story?
V-2
Did calves you have over the years,
Over them did you shed any tears?
When each one did fall,
Did their names you ever call?
Where are they today?
Do they in your mind stay?
Chorus
How now,
Old cow?
Will now come your glory,
Shinning in your very own story?
Bridge
Now, who will ever know?
About you what will be told?
V-3
So, as in any fairy tale,
Will people remember you well?
About how the hungry you feed,
To answer one of mankind's needs.
Chorus
How now,
Old cow?
Will now come your glory,
Shinning in your very own story?
Will now come your glory,
Shinning in your very own story?
