' the Cowboy's Compliment ... ' (Cowboy Poem # 4)

Now, Early from Young Womanhood I Owe A Cowboy, My Confidence Seems Nobody, Can Build A Woman Up Like A Cowboy’s Compliment … I Was On My Lunch Hour While Working At A Bank Downtown I Went To Piccadilly’s Cafeteria … got Line-Selection and Sat Down They Say, ‘You Never Know Who’s Looking’ And I Can See, That’s True And I’m Gonna’ Give You Proof By What Those Two Cowboys, Did Do … The Piccadilly’s Was Full ‘Cause There Was An Oil-Show In Town Two Western Hats and Suits Passed My Table One Tall-Blue, and One Tall-Brown And One, Picked Up My Ticket Don’t Remember Which, (It Was A Quick-Draw) I Was Busy, Sugaring Tea Shiny-Boots Passing, Was All I Saw … It Took A Moment for Mild-Shock, to Go Realizing I Had No Menu-Ticket ‘Til One of Them, At The Register, Pointed At Me and Paid … That’s Why They Picked-It Now, I Had An Office-Outfit On And, I Didn’t Think It Was All That … But Obviously, My Suit, Hairdo, and Polished-Heels Inspired Them To Pick Up The Check … Now, They Didn’t Try To Flirt They, Didn’t Say A Word To Me … Just Walked Out Into The Texas Sunshine Handing Me A High-Noon-Flattery … And Since from My Young Womanhood I Often Smile At Those Cowboy’s Compliment And Ain’t Nobody Been Able To “ Tell Me, I Ain’t All That – " Sense “ ! ! (LOL) A True Tale … MoonBee
