TO HEAR HIM TELL IT
I
WAS just about to take a drink —
I was mighty dry — So I hailed an old time cowman Who was passing by, " Come in, Ole Timer! have a drink I Kinda warm today I " As we leaned across the bar-rail — " How's things up your way? " " Stock is doin' fairly good,
Range is gettin' fine;
I jes dropped down to meetin' here
To spend a little time.
Con'sidable stuff a-movin' now —
Cows an' hosses, too,
Prices high an' a big demand —
Now I'm tellin' you!
" I've loaded out my feeders,
Got a good price all aroun';
Sold 'em in Kansas City
To a commission man named Brown.
A thousand told o' mixed stuff,
In pretty fair shape, too,"
Said the old Texas cowman,
"Now I'm tellin' you!
