Boots N' Cowboys

They’s a popular misconception ‘Bout cowboys and their ol’ boots— Some say they wants ta die with ‘em on, When they’s dead from cuts or shoots! It gits a feller ta wonderin’ Jest what’s the fuss all about— And why their boots is so important When they is done carried out. Well, if ya ever smelt cowboy’s feet, It’s somethin’ ya don’t fergit— That odor is gall dern plum rotten— Smells like a bad pile of grit! So if ya wonder why them cowpokes Keeps boots on like kings chosen— It’s ‘cause their feet smells dead already Like they’s been decomposin’!
