Premium Member Real Cowboys Don'T Sing Honky-Tonk Songs

When cowboys sprawl 'round the camp fire after the days work is done,
They strum guitars and tootle harmonicas and sing to have fun.
Real cowboys don't sing Honky-Tonk or She Done Me Wrong stuff.
They leave that to rhinestone cowboys, considerin' it to be so much fluff!

Real wranglers sing about ropin' dogies and fixin' barbed wire fences,
Roundups, brandin' time and the magnificence of God's grand expanses.
They sing of home on the range, rodeos and dinin' on bacon and beans,
Cattle stampedes on stormy nights, the old corral and dance hall queens.

They harmonize about ghost riders in the sky who've met their fates,
Tumblin' tumbleweeds, cool water, tin cups and eatin' from tin plates.
They sing about bein' back in the saddle again and the streets of Laredo,
And belt out songs about horses named Old Paint, Ol' Dan and Tornado.

They yodel the cattle call and sing about when the bloom's on the sages,
And croon about their yellow rose of Texas and their pitiful wages.
Real buckaroos sing about Christmas in the bunk house and rye whiskey,
Cattle drives on the Lone Star and Abilene trails and a life so very risky.

They sing of the grumpy foreman and when the works all done this fall,
And tweedle about ragtime cowboy Joe and many a barroom brawl.
Real cowboys sing about ridin' the range, the chaparral and dusty trail,
And leave Hank Snow to warble about lost love, honky-tonks and landin' in jail!

     whereby thy perfect match I do
frankly admit foolishly out sourcing 
     of (good NOT FAKE nor bad) grief emo

shun hull distress disgraceful, 
     which hide de lee recognize coveted prime mate,
     (who shared love of playing scrabble, 
     and born same January 13th birthdate,

     yet six orbits thy senior)   
     mine golden opportunity to lose, 
     viz ma mish mashed aggravating huff flew
vee yam this then
 
     young asinine buck unwittingly  
     inflicted long forgot 'til 
     ear layer t'day thee spouse 
     showed me an photograph,

     when suddenly this lix spittle 
     curmudgeonly bard 
     unexpectedly experienced
     abysmal love stricken agony
  
     (that despite pro missing to pledge - 
     while taking a knee -
     troth Abby Robin - hoo
became thy lawful legal wife - of Jew

whoosh heritage juiced like me, and knew
instantaneously upon 
     setting eyes this then boyish lad - 
     hood bid tootle loo
 
at bachelorhood, when she eyed thyself 
     (wedded now deux plucks decades),

ye, whose Capricorn astrological sign 
     didst bid eternal happiness
    now delayed repercussions I rue!
