CALAMITY JANE:
I fight, and sometimes spit
I drink in a saloon
Don’t laugh at my big cowboy hat
or you'll sing a dead man’s tune.
Sometimes I wish that I
was born a different name
like Bill Hancock,
or Billy the Kid,
but I was born Calamity Jane.
JOHN WAYNE:
I watch my Westerns carefully
to see the cowboys riding high
Don’t mind when I say, “How-a-dee!”
Or lasso you as you walk by.
Let’s saddle up and ride the range
before our grub can get too cold
Perhaps we’ll meet The Duke, John Wayne
but that would make him much too old.
WESTERNS:
Westerns are a faithful friend
Though they’ll hang you from a tree
True-blue to the very end
Like the calvary would be.
TV always gives to me
memories I do not wish to see
Natives living peacefully,
as white men shoot to disagree.
