A Jealous Filly

A Jealous Filly He walked up to the gate Pa said you're kinda late The last time I seen you you was ridin' He said well I got throwed I guess I shoulda knowed That filly's got feelin's she's been hidin' I rode down in the draw To see a colt I saw Last week when I was checkin' out the stock She's a chestnut beauty More than just a cutie She's hangin' out beneath that painted rock I looked into her eye An' I said my oh my That's when my filly balked an' came unstuck First it was a snuffle That became a shuffle Then a roarin', snortin', genuine buck I lasted about three 'Til she was shed of me An' I was gettin' ready for a hike Well let me tell you son - You get girls more than one - It's bound to end in somethin' you don't like Pa began to chuckle Jiggled his belt buckle Said you have learned a lesson for your files. I said I guess that's true I hope to learn a few That don't require a walk of sev'ral miles 4/25/2016
