Cindy



How to survive a hot day.

Kelley

Lyle's Boat

Born into Texas farming
Hanging tight to his hat,
The late 60's began
And he left the boot mat.

Riding his pony
Hair shocked in those curls,
In search of the ocean
And a boat for his girl.

Signed on with the big wigs
An MCA Records fan,
Began writing songs and
Flaunted "Cowboy Man,"
Won a Grammy,
The top 10
And soon Best Country Album.

Finding his Large Band
Striking Gold with a movie star,
He packed up and shacked up,
But didn't get far.

Now he's back in Texas,
Made news by a bull,
Still playing his guitar
And shocking mop still full.

Lyle will be here tomorrow
And maybe I'll see
If he's atop his pony
In a boat headed for the sea.

Could be.
