Saloon Spectacular

It would be fun to picture me In the 18th century Sirs and Madaam's--Friendly faces Visiting the unique places Like saloons where I will find Folks of every different kind Piano tunes are entertaining Cards, darts, pool--all kinds of gaming A bartender filling glasses Outside a horse and buggy passes Holsters carry guns a lot Tobacco spit in shiny pots Fancy clothes on dancing girls Taking cowboys for a twirl Spurs on boots and cowboy hats Seeing touches in tight chaps Drunks are acting like a fool Card cheating leads to a dual A time and place that's never boring It would be very alluring To turn back the clock to be Part of this special history

Very well done, Robin. Sometimes I wonder how it would be to live back in those days. Simple times yet totally different . I suppose the one that lived then wondered what it would be like a couple hundred years earlier. And so life goes on. enjoyed this one..... Robert.
