Say Rick, old partner, old hoss
it’s about time
for you to pack up your bags
and ride on out of Austin
I grew up thinkin’ I had the smarts
to decide a few things for myself
Maybe others feel the same way
Maybe folks with darker skins want
to vote and have it count
Maybe some women
don’t want you running their lives
You got your tail in a bit of a crack
when you tangled with Wendy Davis
fussed at her like your wayward kid sister
when you didn’t get your way
She put on her runnin’ shoes
and stood up for us commoners
The third point I want to make is ….
well hold on to your britches while I think of it—
I guarantee it’s important
just skipped my mind
