Cowboy Ten Commandments

My Mawmaw found an old newspaper clipping  and she gave it to  me.  It is called the Cowboy Ten Commandments. I thought it was fun so I am sharing it with you.

The clipping says, “These have been posted on the wall of a ‘cowboy church’ at Cross Trails Church in Fairlie, TX. They were too good not to pass along.”


1. Just one God.
2. Honor yer Ma ‘n Pa.
3. No telling tales or gossipin’.
4. Git yourself to Sunday meeting.
5. Put nothin’ before God.
6. No foolin’ around with another fellow’s gal.
7. No killin’.
8. Watch yer mouth.
9. Don’t take what ain’t yers.
10. Don’t be hankerin’ for yer buddy’s stuff.

The source of the clip was USA Today. I do not know when it was printed.
