A Humourous Narrative For Lyric Man

Dave made a comment about his cowboy boots so I simply had to weave this joke into a little narrative An elderly couple moved to Texas and the old man had always wanted some cowboy boots Guess he dreamed of being a cowboy and getting involved in shootouts So he buys the boots and walks into the kitchen wearing them like a prize He asks his wife if she notices anything different but she says nothing He gets a bit annoyed, goes off and strips naked except for the boots ‘Notice anything different now?’ he says to his wife She looks down at him and says… ‘What’s different – its hanging down today.. it was hanging down yesterday and it will be again tomorrow’. Well he’s not too happy and says ’and do you know why it’s hanging down?’ ‘No’ she says ‘It’s hanging down because it’s looking at my new cowboy boots’ She doesn’t change her expression and replies ‘Shoulda bought a hat dear, you shoulda bought a hat’ Hope it raises a smile!

Jan....this is an incredibly funny write!!! Now we know we should be them hats.....ALWAYS HATS! ;) ok....but on a serious note...I do like cowboy boots. Bought my boyfriend an expensive pair...my only real boyfriend who became my husband....I still make him keep the boots though he can't wear them! Maybe it's a good thing! ;)
