Cowboy and double cream

I wrote this piece in January 1996 after a rehearsal with the Choeur de Jade (Fribourg, Switzerland). I was always curious to know what kind of melody, which is often mentioned at the end of some episodes with vague drawings, Luky Luke was singing. And then... my imagination started to work and I invented everything, the scenario, text and music...

To sing this piece it is recommended to use the american accent. At the end of the third stanza (Fine), somebody from the choir, nicely gifted for that, should neigh in solo, while the other singers hold their chords.
