THE COWBOY'S DANCE SONG
Y
OU can't expect a cowboy to agitate his shanks
In etiquettish manner in aristocratic ranks When he's always been accustomed to shake the heel and toe
At the rattling rancher dances where much etiquet don't go.
You can beji I set them laughing in quite an excited way, '
A-giving of their squinters an astonished sort of play, When I happened into Denver and was asked to take a prance
In the smooth and easy mazes of a high-toned dance. When I got among the ladies in their frocks of fleecy
white,
And the dudes togged out in wrappings that were simply out of sight,
Tell you what, I was embarrassed, and somehow I couldn't keep
From feeling like a burro in a pretty flock of sheep. Every step I made was awkward and I blushed a fiery red
Like the principal adornment of a turkey gobbler's head.
