Cowboy poetry is an acquired taste,

Not one to be picked up in any great haste.

But if you're up to the job,

Try an offering from Cob-

Meister himself where satisfaction is guaranteed.

Yes, if it's not to your liking, does not meet your need,

Just return the unused portion of the book you bought,

He'll return the unused portion of your bucks he caught....

Beans Again, Cornbread, Pigmeat, Cherries 'n Dumplin's, and, of course, Cowboy Cookin'.
