He's a Cowboy Poet the advertise said,
And an entertainer, too, to boot.
Some folks say, "He's just a fool",
Others just don't give a hoot.
But some folks, they come to hear the poems,
Others come to just spend time.
I don't care.....I'm glad you're here,
Any reason suits me fine.
I hope you're smilin' when ya leave,
Hope your heart is lighter then.
'Cause no matter who you are,
I'd be right proud to call ya friend.
No, I may never be a Baxter Black,
Or even a Rudy or a Waddy,
But I've heard some folks chuckle,
When we discuss that old one holer potty.
And I've seen a tear roll down a cheek,
When I recite the old Prairie Sundown.
And I've had folks gawk and laugh at me,
As if I was dressed like a Shriner Clown.
So here I am, that's all there is,
I'm no more than what ya see,
And if you wanted somethin' different,
Then what you're wantin'....just ain't me.
