Gotta Love Those Cowboys!


No, not those cowboys. I'm talkin' 'bout a cowboy like this:

Sing along with me (to the tune of I Love Paris):

Oh, I love cowboys in the springtime. I love cowboys in the fall.
I love cowboys in the summer when they sizzle,
I love cowboys in the winter when they drizzle.

I love cowboys every moment
Every moment of the year.
I love cowboys.
Why, oh, why do I love cowboys?
Because...


Okay, tell me why you love cowboys!

Hey Sherrill, I just received the package today - thanks for the book and the pen and magnet. Thank you, too, for the wonderful card, it was very sweet :-)

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a cowboy. When I grew up, I realized I hadn't trained properly, so I pursued a field for which I was better prepared.

However, I never liked cowboys in the way you suggest...

Oh, Sherrill... You started a dangerous topic here, my friend. Dangerous...

Why do I love cowboys? Well... I think these lyrics by a Miss Katrina Elam sums it all up...

I Want A Cowboy

Everybody told me he was a dream
Picture perfect like he stepped right off the silver screen
Said that he would sweep me off my feet
But I’m still standing – No he didn’t do it for me
‘Cause I don’t go for all that wine and dine
with the Ray Ban / Fake tan / Never mind

Chorus:
I want a down home / Up-with-the-sun-rise man
A pick-up truck driving / Bull riding / Strong steady hand
I want the Wranglers / Stetson / and all that stuff
I want the real McCoy
I want a Cowboy

I’m tired of talking ‘bout it / Wasting my time
On all the cheap talkers – needing me / feeding me lines
Give me somebody who’s tender but tough
Simple and honest / Knows a thing or two about love
I’ve seen enough to know I know what I like
It’s the hard working / head turning / rugged type

Repeat Chorus:

Bridge:
I’ve seen enough to know – ya know what I mean
Ride me off into the sunset
That’s my thing

Repeat Chorus:

Give me the Wranglers / Stetson / All that stuff
I want the real McCoy
I want a cowboy
I want a cowboy

I love cowboys because they are rugged he-men!

LOL Sam. And you're very welcome re: the books and stuff. I hope you enjoy the stories. And what I wrote on the card was true. :)

Sherrill Quinn said...
