Two Thousand and Twenty Three Part 3

The ground was totally naked Not a spear of grass was found And this was where they planned to camp It was to late to travel on Cookie banged the pots and pans Trying to cook bug free While the cowboys tried to clear the land Thus their bedrolls to put down" The cattle stomped And pawed the ground They weren't to anxious Tonight to bed down
