The Cowboy in a Pink Armani Suit
How I wished this truly was a Song I Never Heard. My Mom used to play country music all the time while ironing, and teaching me to iron. Oh my such simple times. And such simple minded songs. This was a favorite, along with other Marty Robbins Songs. Though somehow I don't think this is quite what he had in mind. LOL
The Cowboy in a Pink Armani Suit
She walked into the barroom, All dressed up to the brim
Said she's just came down from a place called Bayview Ridge
She said she'd came to find her love, A Cowboy on the loose
But he didn't look like a cowboy In his pink Armani Suit.
She snickered at the way he dressed but she never said a word
She walked on by the rest of us flipping everyone the bird
"A pink armani outfit doesn't go with cowboy boots"
She snikered at her lover in his pink Armani suit.
He turned and looked her up and down, smiling with the biggest grin
"Darling what you don't know won't fit in your little little head."
Armani made this outfit with a certain cowboy look
Designed to go with anyone's shiny black high heel cowboy boots
We started for the exits before the mug's and bottles flew
We stopped as she walked up slowly, looking at his brand new shoes
We knew she was a thoroughbred when she pulled a sack of Dukes
From the inside pocket of his Pink Armani Suit.
They rolled theselves both Quirleys and they lit 'em standing there
Both blew each other hearts of smoke and we watched 'em disappear
We thought that he must be crazy when his hand ran through her hair
And with love's light she took his hand and they both walked out of here
Well, I turned around to look at Jill and she was watching me
She said, "I don't believe the crazy things I think I see
But I think I've seen a cowboy in a pink Armani suit,
Walkin' hand in hand in love in shiny black high heeled cowboy boots.
The moral of this story - never judge by what they wear
Underneath some ragged clothes could be a millionaire
Ev'rybody, listen - don't be fooled by this galoot
He's sure enough a fashion buster in a Pink Armani Suit.

Marty must be getting a good chuckle after reading this posting.

Not what Marty had in mind?
Well, sheeet. A course he didn't.
Ah reckon the song that starts "I'll sing you a true song of Billy the Kid..." was the beginning of one of thems what you done writ, but he just plum lost his nerve.

I don't just look it, I'm totally evil
PS
I too was played Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs over and over as a kid, although I wasn't trusted with an iron - not even a Big Iron On His Hip.

As I was out cruising the streets of the Castro
as U was out cruising for gay sex today
I saw a young drag queen all dressed in black latex-
Wait a minute, I better not. Last time I used a song to comment on a song it wound up entered in a story challenge somehow....
So anyway, a fun song reworking Beth, whether or not Marty would actually appreciate it. Although after some of the garish
outfits that have been worn on stage at the Opry and such, a pink Armani suit might not really stand out a whole lot.
Working cowboys might not be much on bling, but give them a guitar & some spotlights and look out!
