Tom the Dancing Bug 1993 Ruben Bolling I recall back when the west was wild an' we was pushin' steer across the prairie. One of the best durned cowhands around was a LADY -- a lady from back east name of... BOCA RATON BARBARA That ol' gal dressed and talked funny, but DAMN if she couldn't ride n' rope with the best. Barbara: Come on, bubbala! What do I, have all day? An' nerves o' steel. That bird took nothin' from nobody. Barbara: Excuse ME! I am NOT riding Scout again today! You'll just have to find someone else! In town, she could get pretty ornery... Barbara: JED'S SALOON?! PLEASE! It's a MOB SCENE there! PACKED! I'd sooner DIE than go back there! We'll go to the Nugget. But truth is, she could be handy to have around when the going got tough. Barbara: ...and I'M telling YOU, we're not sitting at this table! It's right next to the KITCHEN! ...alright, I want to speak to the manager! Best of all, on a long haul, she could spit a yarn better'n any man. Barbara: So I said to her, "Honey, I'm sorry but that blouse is from Hunger. Tack-A-Mundo." Yep, it took a special breed to tame the west, and none fit the bill better than...Boca Raton Barbara! Barbara: More decaf?
