Christmas is a special time of year! It is a time of Family, Friends, Faith and Films (Don't you all enjoy the holiday movies?)! Well, I've been singing a song I learned YEARS ago to my children and now grandchildren (or whoever else's children that will listen!). I have no idea who wrote it or how to give credit. You may find that the children in your life will enjoy it, so I'm sharing with you. Sing this to the tune of "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer".
"Randolph the bow legged cowboy
Had a very shiny gun,
And if you ever saw it
You would turn away and run.
All of the other cowboys
Used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Randolph
Join in any horseback games.
Then one snowy Christmas Eve,
The sheriff came to say,
Randolph with your guns so bright,
Won't you lead my posse tonight?
Then how the cowgirls loved him,
And they shouted out with glee,
Randolph the bowlegged cowboy
You'll go down in history!"
Merry Christmas and Happy Trails,
Sam Gerhardt
President, FoxTROT
