Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Cowboy Poetry
I ain't much for shopping, Or for goin' into town
Except at cattle-shipping time, I ain't too easily found.
But the day came when I had to go - I left the kids with Ma.
But 'fore I left, she asked me, 'Would you pick me up a bra?'
So without thinkin' I said, 'Sure,'How tough could that job be?
An' I bent down and kissed her An' said, 'I'll be back by three.'
Well, I done the things I needed, But I started to regret
Ever offering to buy that thing - I worked me up a sweat
I walked into the ladies shop My hat pulled over my eyes,
I didn't want to take a chance On bein' recognized.
I walked up to the sales clerk - I didn't hem or haw -
I told that lady right straight out,'I'm here to buy a bra.'
From behind I heard some snickers,So I turned around to see
Every woman in that store Was a'gawkin' right at me!
'What kind would you be looking for?' Well, I just scratched my head.
I'd only seen one kind before,'Thought bras was bras,' I said.
'Well sir, that's where you're wrong.
Follow me,' I heard her say, Like a dog, I tagged along.
She took me down this alley Where bras was on display.
I thought my jaw would hit the floor When I saw that lingerie.
They had all these different styles That I'd never seen before
I thought I'd go plumb crazy 'fore I left that women's store.
They had bras you wear for eighteen hours And bras that cross your heart.
There was bras that lift and separate, And that was just the start.
They had bras that made you feel Like you ain't wearing one at all,
And bras that you can train in When you start off when you're small.
Well, I finally made my mind up - Picked a black and lacy one -
I told the lady, 'Bag it up,' And figured I was done.
But then she asked me for the size I didn't hesitate
I knew that measurement by heart,'A six-and-seven-eighths.'
'Six and seven eighths you say? That really isn't right.'
'Oh, yes ma'am! I'm real positive - I measured them last night!'
I thought that she'd go into shock, Musta took her by surprise
When I told her that my wife's bust Was the same as my hat size.
'That's what I used to measure with, I figured it was fair,
But if I'm wrong, I'm sorry ma'am.' This drew another stare.
By now a crowd had gathered And they all was crackin' up
When the lady asked to see my hat,To measure for the cup.
When she finally had it figured, I gave the gal her pay.
Then I turned to leave the store, Tipped my hat and said, 'Good day.'
My wife had heard the story 'fore I ever made it home.
She'd talked to fifteen women Who called her on the phone.
She was still a-laughin' But by then I didn't care.
Now she don't ask and I don't shop For women's underwear.

I'm not familiar, but I Googled some lines and most sites I found said that it was written by Bill Hirschi of Rexburg, Idaho. However Waddie Mitchell has preformed it before.
