The Ole Ranch Truck




"The Ole Ranch Truck"

It isn't much to look at see

4 bald tires

Cracked windshield

2 doors that are two different colors

Floorboards about rusted out

Holes in the seats

Tags and half a cow crayon on the dash

But this ole truck

Is worth more than just cash

It is a feed hauler during the winter feeding

It's doubles as a hay hauler during summer haying

It is a warm place for a newborn calf who needs a boost

It's traveled many miles

This truck ain't gonna go out of style

There is always a pile of cowdogs in the back

Don't worry they won't attack unless you get to close

Yup she's seen better days

But I wouldn't give up

The Ole Ranch Truck.




Me and the ole truck in 2004 my freshman year at college! She is retired and living out her years with my brother nowadays

  1. Great poem about a great truck. I just parked mine, a 1950 Chevy 5-window. Been out hauling ranch equipment. Old trucks are loyal 4-wheel friends. Love your poem!
