Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I showed up late with a bucket of feed
You laughed and shook your head at me
The gate was open, the clock ran thin
Too little, too late to get him in
[Pre-Chorus]
All week long, you let it slide
Now he’s at the rail, too full of pride
You can push and pull, you can pray and shout
But some things now just don’t work out
[Chorus]
You can not fatten a bull on market day
(you can not)
You can not fatten a bull on market day
It’s the wrong hour, wrong hands, wrong way
You can not fatten a bull on market day
(too late now)
You can not fatten a bull on market day
[Verse 2]
I learned that lesson in the dirt and rain
You don’t make gold from a last-minute plan
You can pour and pour, but the trough runs dry
When the big red wagon’s already gone by
[Pre-Chorus]
All week long, you let it slide
Now he’s at the rail, too full of pride
You can push and pull, you can pray and shout
But some things now just don’t work out
[Chorus]
You can not fatten a bull on market day
(you can not)
You can not fatten a bull on market day
It’s the wrong hour, wrong hands, wrong way
You can not fatten a bull on market day
(too late now)
You can not fatten a bull on market day
[Bridge]
So I’m loading up early, fixing the fence
Counting my losses before they make sense
If I want a strong back and a steady name
I’ve got to work that ground long before the gate
[Final Chorus]
You can not fatten a bull on market day
(you can not)
You can not fatten a bull on market day
It’s the wrong hour, wrong hands, wrong way
You can not fatten a bull on market day
(too late now)
You can not fatten a bull on market day

Style
Country pop with a stomping mid-tempo groove, steady handclaps, and twangy guitar; verse feels conversational and tight, pre-chorus lifts with harmony stacks, chorus hits with a chantable proverb hook and gang-vocal repeats. Lead vocal stays close-mic and earthy, with delay throws on the last word of each hook line, and a short fiddle run between sections. Bright, punchy mix with a dusty boot-scoot edge.
