When The Cows Come Home



At sundown, when the day has fled,
      The sun has found the west,
And homeward come the bossy cows,
      I like that hour the best.
To see them crowding, pushing home,
      To hear the clanging bell,
To know that they are home again,
      O yes, I like it well!
To see them sheltered for the night
      To know they all are nigh;
I like to see my cows come home,
      Beef is so awfully high.
