Out of the West

Out of the West
 By Elizabeth Dimick There was young fellow Who lived in the west:
 He wrote of that country With vigor and zest. He told of its ranches, Of stampedes at night, Of cowboys and "likker." And many & fight. He drew such a picture With ink and with pen It stirred the emotions Of city-bred men. In couples and punches On Pullmans they piled To answer the summons, The "call of the wild" But when they got out there And found out the facts, They looked up this writer, And some had an axe! But then they discovered His writing had ceased The minute it brought him Money to go east!
