A man that straddles
fence usually has a sore crotch
A change of
pastures makes fer a fatter calf
Your money don't
last as long as a rattler in a cowboys boot.
A lot of folks
would do more prain' could they find a soft spot fer their knees.
There's only
two things I'm afeared of, a decent woman an' bein' left afoot.
Yuh can't turn
a woman mor'n yuh can a runaway hog.
A grass widdow
is a dangerous critter fer a bachelor cowboy.
Cussin' a range
cook is a risky as brandin' a mules tail.
Yer not overweight--jus
a foot too short.
A man that looks
over his shoulder at every piece of straight road ain't been livin' a straight life.
That crossin'
a woman 'bout as dangerous as walkin' in quicksand over hell.
Boothill is
full of fellers that pulled their triggers without aiming.
If the Lord
had intended us to fight like a dog, He'd a give us longer claws an' teeth.
A friend will
stick with you 'til the're cuttin' ice in Death Valley.
If the saddle
creaks, it's not paid fer.
The bigger the
mouth the better it looks shut.
Likker will
make yuh see double an' feel single.
Don't never
interfere with nothin' what don't bother yuh none.
The Lord done
put tumbleweeds here to show which way the wind is blowin'.
Most men are
like a bob-wire fence, they hav their good points.
