Roger,
I'm sorry but I truly don't have any Paddy Roberts lyrics, though I did once own an album, and it may still exist in my parents house somewhere...
Sadly, or I think so anyway, the following couplets from The Lavender Cowboy have occured to me during the day.

And he rounded up cattle, a-riding side saddle
because he preferred it that way.

He went out on bender and slugged the bartender
And stole all the strawberry gin.
