Cowboys Can Change

Inspired by another poem by another poet---------just for fun Oh, I didn't know that cowboys weren't respected and revered John Wayne, when he passed away Brought me close to tears But now I know that people Think we're all just trailer trash So I've taken of my boots And tossing out my hats There's no more eating beans upon these dirty plates And movin' from this trailer park Oh brother I can wait But, putting cars on blocks Oil changes in the yard Stopping those activities I swear it will be hard Beer cans won't get piled high In a pyramid, way out back My pit bulls won't be barkin' Always ready to attack Soon I'll trade-in my pick-up For a brand new SUV And I'll become more citified For the whole dang world to see I won't mistreat my woman And call her an old cow And I won't let my kid's Ride a bull, or catch a sow Oh, I didn't know that cowboys Were just lazy and no good So we're moving from the country Right to your neighborhood
