BRONCO JACK’S THANKSGIVING
13
An’ Parson Billy spoke the words that made us man and wife,
To run as double-header team along the trail of life.
We had a combination feast, half weddin’ dinner an’
The other half Thanksgivin’ an’ I tell you it was grand;
An’ everybody that was there allowed the dance jest tuk
The cake from any ranch event that they had ever struck.

They all kep’ sayin’ Jack was wild, an’ some allowed that he
Was hardly fit to share the life o’ sich gal as me.
But I was of a reckless turn, an’ tol’ ’em that I hoped
To have success in tamin’ him when I had got him roped.
There’s quite a change of feelin’ now, fer ever sence the day,
We j’ined our hands an’ tuk the vows to make a double play,
He ’s proved as good a husban’ as a woman ever got,
An’ all the gals is jealous of the thorrerbred I caught.

The only thing that’s rattled him was when the Master sent
Two great big bouncin’ baby twins to us: the said event
Jest seemin’ fer to break him up, him sayin’, sort o’ gruff,
That one sich infant music-box he thought was quite enough;
