Western Limericks By David Christensen |

The Rodeo Clown My job as a rodeo clown Is the most dangerous job in this town During the rodeo I keep that wild bull From beating that cowboy to the ground Ole Nellie I have a big horse called Ole Nellie She's got an oversized belly I stood behind her A mistake, I am sure Fer now my boots are all smelly Cowboy Joe I know of a cowboy named Joe He rides broncs in the rodeo But after playing the game He aches from the pain Of getting thrown off of the bull One Mornin' at the Saloon In the saloon, early this mornin' A cowboy burst in with no warnin' He ordered up a beer And said loud 'n' clear: "Some varmit stole my old horse named Norman!" The Search We rode our horses on the trail Looking fer every detail Every clue that we saw Would lead to them outlaws To a showdown, where justice would prevail Cowboy Bill I have a friend called Cowboy Bill He lives in a house on the hills He has lots of land And he finds it all grand Except when his lawnmower kills At the Fair With spurs on his fancy cowboy boots And dressed in a nice leather suit He went to the fair And played all the games there But he did not win any loot A Funny Sight I rode down an old western path I saw a sight that made me laugh I done saw today To mine own dismay A cowby ridin' a garaffe One Long Day We spent the day ridin' on horse Herding cattle up; of course With the heat of the sun Blazin' down on everyone Things couldn't seem to get worse Cowboy Jake There once lived a cowboy named Jake His bull ridin' skills were great The championship, he could have won But he had a problum He arrived at the rodeo late |
