Red Ryder makes young dreams come true


Is it safe
The Daisy Gun?
Red Ryder name
Not a toy but fun.

Goggles on
Without a doubt
You never want to shoot
Your own eye out

We stack the cans
We plink and plunk
We keep a score
While shooting junk

Shooting down
Never up
At stacked cans
Or perhaps a cup

It's a memory made
With dad and son
Learning safety
But having fun

I'm glad I got him
This old Red Ryder
It brings us closer
And makes us tighter

I even talked
To the local law
And they said it was cool
As they watched and saw

My son, just 12
Hit the can
And they said if he listens
This helps make a man

To be taught well
About guns with respect
Will make him help others
And he can also direct

Just how to shoot
And be safe above all
To point always down range
And then have a ball.

Always wear you eye protection!!!! Don't shoot your eye out kid!!!
