There was an old cowboy from Texas,
Who in the west had so many exes.
So he moved to New York,
To get some new work,
And get away from the war of the sexes.

A cowboy from down Pecos way,
On the bulls he just couldn't stay.
So he bought super glue,
Then said proudly I knew,
I could stick to the bulls one fine day.

An old bearded dude from Havana,
Tried unsuccessfully to smoke a banana.
So he switched to cigars,
Amidst hardy, har, hars,
Of the prime minister in the cabana.

There once was a gay caballero,
Who had all his pants made of cuero.
But they shrunk in the rain,
A source of great pain,
And he'd scream out his pain oooh, aah, oh.

There once was a gambler from Reno,
Who after lunch forgot to take beano.
Everyone had good hands,
But they fled through the sand,
And they wound up playing cards down in Chino.

He thought he had lost all his reason,
Cause a strike threatened the football season.
But Hank Jr. came on,
Just a singing his song,
Nothing Roger Goodell said, was as pleasing.

The president of the church's men's club,
Was down at the Green Shamrock pub.
With the reverend O' Finn,
Drinking good English gin,
Shouting set em up one more time my friend Bob.

The Shopper

Busy as a bee,
Flying here and there.
On a shopping spree,
Charging everywhere.

Take away her card,
Before she ruins your life.
Nothing is as hard,
As a shopping wife.

A Mexican girl, a pretty young lass,
Ate so many beans, she bloated with gas.
Barking spiders was what she'd often say,
Then turn on her heels and, walk swiftly away,
Very rapidly I must confess.

A Bad Day Of Fishing

A bad day of fishing,
Can go a long way.
It beats a good day of work,
Any old day.

Nothing beats fishing, I guarantee,
Listen to what I say.
If you don't like fishing, you'll still agree,
Have a bad fishing day.
