i happened to catch some of tom russell's performance on letterman tonight. i'd never heard his cowboy tunes before, and i was quite impressed. this stanza was by far my favorite:
check him out.
When I'm too damn old to sit a horse, I'll steal the warden's car
Break my ass out of this prison, leave my teeth there in a jar
You don't need no teeth for kissin' gals or smokin' cheap cigars
I'll sleep with one eye open, 'neath God's celestial stars
check him out.
