The Blue-Haired Cougar - Jonas - 24 May 2015 The Blue-Haired Cougar My son dumped me off at the “old folks’ home”. He said it was “for the best”. Just me, my computer, ham radio rig, And my blue-tick coon-hound, Tess. And I remembered the words of a dear old friend, Who warned me before he passed, “Watch out for the blue-haired cougars, son - ‘Cause you’ll never stand a chance!” The odds, I admit, didn’t look too good, Outnumbered eight to one in here, Though I felt “Old Tess” would keep me safe, And bark if a cougar prowled near. But a Texas blue-haired cougar’s smart, And one asked me the very next day, “You don’t mind if I walk your coon-hound, Sir? With dogs I have a way.” So Old Tess fell first for that cougar’s charms, And her “doggie treats” as well, ‘Cause Tess didn’t even bark or growl, When that cougar rang my bell. “Wouldn’t you like a glass of wine?” That cougar asked the next day, While Tess just sat and wagged her tail, Those “Milk Bones” had paved the way. Then a glass of wine, a highball or two, My days and weeks just flew, And by then all I could dream about, Was that cougar with hair of blue. Now it’s been six months and here we are, My blue-haired cougar and me, Along with our blue-tick coon-hound, Tess, Just as happy as we can be. So here’s my advice to all old men, In that “old folks’ home” at last. Watch out for those blue-haired cougars, boys, And run, but don’t run too fast!
