...through prairies, and out in the sticks,
with Roy Rogers, Gene Autry and Tom Mix;
worked with the cowboys, now rodeos,
these horses can go, where anyone goes.
American Quarter Horse, the given name,
but it's how we remember them just the same;
Trigger, Champ or just Ol' Paint,
some jobs have changed, but the horses ain't.
Known for quickness, they turn on a dime,
steadfast, and loyal, well, most of the time;
tools of the trade for cowboys and soldiers,
memories last, even while the campfire smolders.
Think back to your favorite, if you're old enough,
to have in your memory all that old cowboy stuff,
it's part of my past, kind of hard to forget,
just like us humans, they give what they get.
Happy trails to you!
