A Cane And A High Starched Collar

(words & music by tepper - bennett)
Cowboy, cowboy marry me
I'll bake you a cherry pie
Well thank you very kindly mam
But i'm too young to die

Hi-lo-do-si-dosy-do
Stay single and save a dollar
Come saturday night i'll court a pretty girl
With a cane and a high starched collar

Cowboy if you'll marry me
I'll be your darling jenny
Now why should i drink from just one well
When i can drink from twen'y

Hi-lo-do-si-dosy-do
Stay single and save a dollar
Come saturday night i'll court a pretty girl
With a cane and a high starched collar

Cowboy, cowboy name the day
July 'd be nice i reckon
Gladly meet you at the church
July the 32nd

Hi-lo-do-si-dosy-do
Stay single and save a dollar
Come saturday night i'll court a pretty girl
With a cane and a high starched collar

You sleep all day and spoon all night
And eat your favorite chow
Then why should i get married mam
That's what i'm doing now

Hi-lo-do-si-dosy-do
Stay single and save a dollar
Come saturday night i'll court a pretty girl
With a cane and a high starched collar
