Canadian Mountie In Glasgow

A man from the Canadian Mounties  Joined the Strathclyde police, Seconded to tame the gangs Of the inner Glasgow streets. But on one sunny day In Southern Lanarkshire, A horse escaped from its stable To bring some local fear. So they called our Canadian pal To see how he rides a horse, And if he could tame the stallion In the style of the Canadian force. As he approached the GG It let the man sit on its back, Who bragged to his uniformed pals "See I ain't no Mountie hack". But slowly creeping behind  Sergeant Jock gave the horse a wack, The horse responded in kind And bolted with its rider bear back. To the shock of our Mountie friend Being scared he'll hit the deck, Grabbed the horse real tight With sleeper hold around its neck. But the horse just panicked more And ran as fast as it could, With the pride of the mounted police 'Round it's neck straight into the wood. So the rest of the police on duty followed the horse and its jockey, Laughing and running so hard Thinking of jokes that could mock him. They eventually found the horse Without our Mountie friend, For the horse threw off Canadian pride When their run had come to and end. Now if you ask our Mountie friend "Do you ride horses anymore", He'll smile and wink as he tells you "I've never ridden a horse before". Note : this is a true story. A Strathclyde (Glasgow) policeman told me so it must be true
