A Lifelong Fascination with Cowboys

When I was a little tacker,

Barely a meter off the ground,

I was given a cowboy suit,

And I wore it round and round.

🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Two guns, my chaps, a hat to boot,

I felt like I was a man,

Arresting all the evil guys,

Well, at least that was my plan.

🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Little boys grow up, and so did I,

My cowboy suit, I soon outgrew,

But my fascination with cowboys,

Continued to be true.

🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Every night at four o’clock,

You never had to look far,

There I’d be with the TV on,

The Lone Ranger was my star.

🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

With his faithful and trusty companion,

They always seemed to win,

Chasing all the bad guys,

They would always bring them in.

🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Now I’m so much older,

The fascination still remains,

Good old western movies,

Ideal viewing when it rains.

🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

I have come to love their music too,

Will Nelson, Brooks and Dunn,

Their music takes me back in years,

To those early days of cowboy fun.

🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
