The Tenderfoot Girl In The West

When first she arrives from her home in the East
She feels some timidity, and
Oft wonders what nature of man and of beast
She'll meet in this wonderful land,
She's read that we're wild and quite wooly out here,
But galvanized heathen at best,
And can not but feel an unrising of fear,
The tenderfoot girl in the West.
