It's tough out there and we're fighin thru some tough times, with all the fires, loss of livestock, and this darn drought. If this makes one person smile, it's been worth it.

Makin Rain

Just like everyone else
The droughts about more'n I can stand
Rather than sitting around and doin nothin
I took matters into my own hand.

First I thought of a rain dance
That’s one thing I thought I could do.
I found me big old eagle feather,
And dug out my old slippers too

I climbed to my tallest hill
And began bopping around.
Then I scuffled along in a circle
Wailing a mournful sound.

After about 10 minutes
In 110 degree heat.
I realized I wasn’t an Indian
And probably had the wrong beat.

Searching around for anything
I remembered something I’d read,
About running around commando
From the house down to the shed.

I thought about this for awhile
Then maybe it is worth a try
Cause I’m really getting desperate,
Need to get some clouds in the sky.

I waited until the right moment
While the wife had to go into town.
Then I quickly stripped off all my clothes
And throwed them there on the ground.,

I pulled on my boots and went running
Off the hill to the creek,
Down across the bottom
With bugs buzzing around my cheek.

Into the barn I stumbled
Happy yet all out of air.
I might look utterly ridiculous
But if rains,.... I don’t really care

I started back to the house
Uphill most all of the way
Sun beating down me merciless
I sure picked a really hot day.

I wished I been a little wiser
And thought this thing out some more.
Cause by the time I got to my clothes
My rear end felt kind of sore.

Later when it was time for supper
And my wife finally got home from town.
She asked why I stood up to eat
Why the heck wouldn’t I just sit down.

I studdered around and finally told her.
She said that’s the dumbest thing you’ve done yet!
Where in the heck did that idea come from?
I told her, I ' I' I read it on Ranchers .net!

So folks if you're new to this website
Here's some advice I hope you will heed.
When you visit the coffee shop
Don't believe everything you read!
