What a Hide

Cow farmer and his wife 
were going to the town hall
But he had forgotten
that it was a dress up ball 

Was nearly time to go 
she wanted no arguments
He said "It's a bit late now
but I've a cow hide on the fence"

So they dressed up as a cow
and headed off up the track
He was in the front half
dear wife, she took the back

They had a great time 
eating, dancing and drinking beers
Judge announced them winners
the crowd let go with cheers

They drank a few more and 
partied with friends to celebrate
Eventually she said with a yawn
"We'd best be going it's getting late"

Had to walk home too
it was far too late to get a ride
How funny they did look
staggering around in the cow hide

Both were getting tired now
and things were getting tense
Twas still a long way to go go 
they decided to jump the fence

Shortcut through the paddock
under a moon that was bright and full
But neither of them had noticed
behind them, there was a randy bull

Started running when they saw it
but alas it was far too late
Was a long way yet to the house
and they'd never make the gate

She screamed " now what you fool
I'm dressed up in a fat cow's ass"
He replied "Brace yourself my dear
for I'm about to chew some grass"
