Shel Silverstein - NeverShel Silverstein - Never
Work rating: Medium


I`ve never roped a Brahma bull, I`ve never fought a duel, I`ve never crossed the desert On a lop-eared, swayback mule, I`ve never climbed an idol`s nose To steal a cursèd jewel. I`ve never gone down with my ship Into the bubblin` brine, I`ve never saved a lion`s life And then had him save mine, Or screamed Ahoooo while swingin` through The jungle on a vine. I`ve never dealt draw poker In a rowdy lumber camp, Or got up at the count of nine To beat the world`s champ, I`ve never had my picture on A six-cent postage stamp. I`ve never scored a touchdown On a ninety-nine-yard run, I`ve never winged six Daltons With my dying brother`s gun... Or kissed Miz Jane, and rode my hoss Into the setting sun. Sometimes I get so depressed `Bout what I haven`t done.
