An update of the folk song, "Wagoner's Lad". Rohlfie's sister calls it "Cowgirl Blues", and Rohlfie marvels at places in the world where women are still treated like possessions/property.... still... in the year of our lord, 2022... astounding.

lyrics

It’s hard for a woman to light in this world...
With men who feel threatened by unafraid girls...
Who strike a fine balance ‘tween helpless and wise...
Then fight the hearth battles the rest of their lives.

I live on the poor side… my extras are few...
Approached by a boy in the harvester’s crew...
He hits me up daily… by night and by day...
Then they all get loaded and he goes away.

Your parents don’t like me because i speak plain...
They say there’s no way we … can weather the strain...
I work for my money… i buy my own boots…
And if they don’t like me they can just pass on through.

Your guitar is mellow… come change up your strings...
Come sit down beside me… and harmony sing...
My guitar... it shimmers… it don’t need new strings...
And fare thee well darling… i can’t wear your ring.

Your truck is near empty… your battery’s dead...
Come sit down beside me… as long as you can...
My truck warmed up now… my phone’s in my hand...
And fare thee well darling… no longer to stand.
