I bet you've never heard ole Marshall Dylan say
Miss Kitty have you ever thought of running away
Settling down would you marry me
If I ask you twice and beg you pretty please
She'd of said Yes in a New York minute
They never tied the knot
His heart wasn't in it
He just stole a kiss as he road away
He never hung his hat up, at Kitty's place
I shoulda been a cowboy
I shoulda learned to rope and ride
Wearing my six-shooter, riding my pony, on a cattle drive
Stealing young girl's hearts
Just like Gene and Roy
Singing those campfire songs
Oh, I should've been a cowboy
I might of had a side kick with a funny name
Running wild through the hills chasing Jesse James
Ending up on the brink of danger
Riding shotgun for the Texas Rangers
Go west young man, haven't you been told
California's full of whisky, women and gold
Sleeping out all night beneath the desert stars
With a dream in my eye, and a prayer in my heart.
The crushed ruby velvet represents Miss Kitty's saloon dress. The brown suede, Matt Dillon's vest. And the stitching? Yep- that represents the rope Kitty is gonna use to tie up her man and get Mr. Matt Dillon to the preacher. The silver pieces are pieces represent the 45mm Festus is gonna use to git his buddy to stay at the alter.

Love your awesome card and the take on the tea party today. This is so pretty and a strong box to match. Hmm, what Buckleman could this be for? I wonder.
