Daybreak At Twilight Ranch

A crisp and frosty, golden morning,

I cinch my saddle and swing on, Horse, snorting, dancing,

full of beans, cold backed in the dawn.

A lot of miles to make today,

But, let's take the first few yards... real slow.

Let that bundle of nerves unwind a bit,

I don't need no rodeo.

I can forget the drought, the BSE,

My problems one and all,

With a good horse beneath my saddle,

gathering cattle in the fall.
