Looking At A Horseshoe  By Billy O. Rowland
This city dude was watching the cowboy, While he was shoeing his horse,
He had reached the point in this chore, He was fitting the shoe of course.
He was heating the shoe in the blacksmiths forge, Then shaping it on his anvil.
Then he laid it aside to cool a bit, When the dude was tempted by the devil.
He reached down and picked up the hot shoe, The cowboy had just laid aside.
Faster than he picked it up he dropped it, Cause you see it burnt his hide.
The cowboy slowly looked around and , Questioned him "hot shoe"?
The city dude said, "Nope, it just doesn't take me long to look at a horseshoe."
