The Cowboys' Christmas Ball

Way out in Old Nevada, where the Truckee's waters flow,

Where the cattle are "a-browzin'," an' the Spanish ponies grow;

Where the Northers "come a-whistlin'" from beyond the Neutral Strip;

And the prairie dogs are sneezin', as if they had "The Grip".

Where the cayotes come a-howlin' 'round the ranches after dark,
