Steers
Did you ever want to ride on the range
wear a tin star
be a cowboy?
no?
strange
I did.
I wanted to rustle some beef
take them across the Rio..
shoot it out with
Lee Van Cleef.
I wanted Rowdy Yates
to wait for me
wanted to drink sour mash rotgut
in Tennessee,
see the Mississippi and
cry yippee ki yay,
not to be
except
on the TV.
