Horsing Around

Hop on for the thrill o your life
   A bronco might throw you in seconds
But on this ride you'll manage the reins
   Though your horse may be a runaway train

You'll go up, you'll come down
   You'll for sure bounce around
Will you be able to stay the course?
   It depends on how you manage the horse...

Here's a tip for you cowboys out there
   For those who've been known to swear
Don't place it all on one horse -- Don't you dare
   Go ahead: Buy those stocks ~ Say a prayer!

Funny GW. I've fallen off in that rodeo so many times my tookis hurts. Buy high and sell low, my speciality.
