AnElephantCant pretend he’s a cowboy
But he thinks he can act in a Western
He’s not smart like Butch
He can’t drive a Stagecoach
But he can earn a Fistful of Dollars like the best of ‘em
He thinks he looks cool in a Stetson
And macho with his boots in the stirrup
But he won’t go to Tombstone
Certainly not on his own
He prefers to stay behind Wyatt Earp
He is a cert for The Good The Bad and The Ugly
You decide which part he must play
He stands beside Shane
He Drifts the High Plains
And covers Paul Newman’s back in Hombre
He was always cute when he Wore a Yellow Ribbon
He Dances with Wolves and then needs a rest
He avoids a free for all
At the OK Corral
And lives peacefully Once Upon a Time in the West
One Eyed Jacks see Brando winning hands down
Blazing Saddles is funnier than a Yosemite Sam cartoon
AnElephant’s wee brother
Says no one is tougher
Than Gary Cooper as he waits for High Noon
He isn’t The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
He doesn’t want to be Unforgiven
He ain’t no John Wayne
He’s more Calamity Jane
He wants to be number eight in The Magnificent Seven
As always, your delightful poem sets the others off rhyming too and I love them all
A great post. you got a lot of movies and actors in there too!
Emmy is laughing so hard
She can’t think of rhymes.
Still AnElephant in a Stetson
Must be magnificent,
But what does he do about hosses?
AnElephantCant believe Emmy’s laughter
He thinks he owes her an apology
She is right of course
He can’t ride a horse
That would just be unfair on the gee gee!
So you are saying ..
Rather than being an injun
He would more likely be a singed* one
He would run and hide in a pot
When someone fired off the first shot
He would be happier hanging out with the Jetsons
Rather than with pistols, but still wear the Stetson
He would do that as a rule
Because, stetsons are cool
*singed as in burnt, not singed as sang
AnElephantCant hide in a pot
But he isn’t too smart with a pistol
He is not awfully brave
So if he misbehaves
You can chase him away with a thistle
LOL … like it
