Long Day

Long Day It's been a long hard day in the saddle I'm really tired of fighting with cattle My hands are all blistered My leg is injured My tail bone is raw My feet need to thaw My stomach is empty My eyelids are droopy I'm tired of the rain and being in pain I'm really beat I need something to eat With a few hours of shuteye And if I don't die I'll get up like most cowmen and do it all over again By Mike Francis
