OLD COWBOY'S LAMENT


I used to be the best they say
At riding young wild horses for my pay
But now I'm much too old it seems
I only ride wild horses in my dreams ...

Old Midnight was a champion
He's the only bronc I couldn't ride
But now I hear old Midnight's blind
And rides the little children for a dime ...

- From "Ride 'Em Cowboy" by Paul Davis; Art by Ace Reid
