he doesn't say much
he's never had to
figures if you do the job
that's all there is to say
.
bein' a man's not about
talkin' a good game
it's about doin' what's right
treatin a woman right
holdin' yer tongue 'round children
.
it's about appreciatin'
all that God has provided
and thankin' Him in all things
.
it's about helpin' yer neighbor
doin' right by all creatures
large and small in rain or shine
.
it's about givin' every man
a fair shake and not judgin'
those who are different
.
rememberin' that God
made us all
.
~ poem "The Cowboy"
