Long Drive

Cowboys young old saddle up their rides. The will drive many bovine through valleys unknown Heading northward bound to the rail road head. The leave their brides for the drive. All at once they start the drive yelping and whistling to move the bovine. They travel day and night through valleys unknown seeing native Indian tribes. They stop and grab some grub as the night devour the sky. Bovine cry as the coytee howl. The cowboy play a lullaby as sleep falls upon them. Sun on the horizon signals another ride for the lonesome riders. They whistle and yelp to move the bovine down the trail one more day.
