Old Cowboy Boots
These boots have seen a lot of action through the years.
They’ve been through droughts and floods.
Have helped round up and brand cattle.
Have trekked through mud in the middle of the night to help a cow give birth.
Never a day went by that the rancher didn’t pull his boots on first thing in the morning.
The boots are now old and worn, with rips along the sides.
They are a good ol’ pair of boots that the rancher hates to part with.
To him, those boots are like a good friend and they’re also a part of his soul.
He has worn his faithful boots through good times, bad times, fun times and sad times.
Sadly, now the time has come to say goodbye to those dear ol’ worn out boots.
