Re: Gumbud Leisurely Scribbles (part 2)
I love the old cowboys, they were real Men, not like the fellas today wearing makeup and earrings.
This handsome cowboy lived on the edge
Ate loads of beef, never any veg
His name was Ringo and he had a big gun
Used to shoot Bears just for the fun
He went out with a girl called Blanche
Who rode every horse they had on the ranch
Went into town on Saturday nights
Beat up the barmen and got into fights
The Sheriff locked him up on one occasion
Accused him of leaning to the gay persuasion
He said to the Sheriff, “Let me out or I’ll strike you”
And the Sheriff said “Oh you are awful, but I like you
Well that’s how the story to me was carried
Not long after Ringo and the Sheriff got married. (Mars Barr)
Yes real Men indeed.
