    Make Me a Cowboy Again for a Day

    By anonymous | Cowboy Poetry | 0 comment | 27 February, 2017 | 0

    Backward turn backward oh time with your wheels
    Bicycles, wagons, and automobiles
    Dress me again in a big Stetson hat
    Spurs, flannel shirt and slicker and chaps
    Put a six-shooter or two in my hands
    Show me a yearlin’ to rope and to brand
    Out where the sage brush is dusty and gray
    Make me a cowboy again for a day.

    Give me a bronc that knows how to dance
    Blue roan in color and wicked of glance
    New to the feeling of bridle and bit
    Give me a quirt that will sting when it hits
    Strap on a blanket behind in a roll
    Toss me a lariat dear to my soul
    Over the trail let me gallop away
    Make me a cowboy again for a day.

    Thunder of hoofs on the range as you ride
    Hissin’ of iron and the sizzlin of hide
    The bellow of cattle and the snort of cayuse
    Longhorns of Texas as well as the duce
    Midnight stampedes and the millin’ of herds
    Yells of the cowboys too angry for words
    Right in the midst of it all I would say
    Make me a cowboy again for a day.

    Under the star-studded sky so vast
    Campfires and coffee and comfort at last
    Bacon that sizzles and crisps in the pan
    After the roundup smells good to a man
    Stories of cowboys and outlaws retold
    Over the pipes as the embers grow cold
    These are the tunes that old memories play
    Make me a cowboy again for a day
