THE OL' COW HAWSE
W
HEN it comes to saddle hawses, there's a dif-
ference in steeds: There is fancy-gaited critters that will suit some feller's needs;
There is nags high-bred an' tony, with a smooth an' shiny skin,
That will capture all the races that you want to run 'em in.
But fer one that never tires; one that's faithful, tried and true;
One that alius is a "stayer" when you want to slam him through,
There is but one breed o' critters that I ever came across
That will alius stand the racket: 'tis the ol
Cow
Hawse! No, he ain't so much fer beauty, fer he's scrubby an'
he's rough,
An' his temper's sort o' sassy, but you bet he's good enough I
Fer he'll take the trail o' mornin's, be it up or be it down,
