The Un Cowboy Like Cowboy

The Un-Cowboy Like Cowboy this is the story of cedric hyde-fleet the most un-cowboy cowboy you ever would meet cedric was english, not british you see but, being a cowboy was what  he wanted to be he was from england as i said before never ridden a horse and well, what's more his image of cowboys was of those on tv but, being a cowboy was what he wanted to be he was all set to travel and leave his home land out to the west but, he was allergic to sand the dust would wreak havoc with his pale, flaky skin ten miles from home was the furthest he'd been he had a six shooter which he'd nicknamed Old Burt but, he didn't have bullets they made his ears hurt the smell of the powder and the noise of the gun made cedric wonder if this would truly be fun he needed a cream for the chafing down there and a specialized hat to protect his thin hair a brush wouldn't do he would need a nice comb he reacted to flannel so he'd get shirts from rome he'd fly out from london head out west to a ranch find a town just like gunsmoke and a bar....the long branch but, his stomach was tender hard liquor was out and the salt in the food would just trouble his gout but, cedric hyde-fleet was determined to go to the united states to join a wild west show he'd start out learning riding how to shoot, and all that he'd learn about cattle he had his own hat he was the most un-cowboy cowboy they would have in the west but, with his dedication he would soon be the best he would get all equipped from dolce and gabbanna his shirts and socks matched his silk plaid bandanna now, cedric hyde-fleet never ever left home never got on the horse or got shirts made in rome the things that he wanted were the things that he'd seen and he forgot about cowboys when he first saw ....The Queen
