A Cowboy's Valentine I guess by now you know just how bad I am at buyin' a greetin' card When I've gone down to our lil' town, pickin' just the right one's too hard So, you're one o' them, your collection's pretty slim o' those store bought commercialized love notes Yer Valentine treat got wrote 'n the truck seat in one of them tally books like Waddie totes I know it might not be right, but you 'n me is awful tight and you know how my skills are sorta' strange I guess I could modernize with trainin' and exercise but, I wouldn't even know how to change So here for the time bein', I hope you'll keep on seein' what little good in me is still preserved Everyday I look above and give thanks for a greater love than an ol' cowboy poet ever deserved                                                         Jim Hawkins
