Did you know that the so-called spaghetti western films were actually made in Spain? I’ve written a blog about my recent trip to the village where “A Few Dollars More” was filmed.
Spaghetti Cowboys in the Spanish Desert
In the Spanish desert, ‘neath a scorching sun,
Spaghetti cowboys ride, their spirit never undone.
Beneath the azure sky, vast lands unfold,
Seeking truth and justice, their stories untold.
With high-brimmed hats and leather boots they tread,
Mounted on their steeds, as time itself they thread.
Rifles by their side, their gaze determined,
Chasing justice’s echo through the American terrain.
The wind carries their songs across the dunes,
As they ride freely, unbound by earthly tunes.
The desert echoes with their jingling spurs,
Spaghetti cowboys, vigilant and bold adventurers.
With each sunset, a new adventure unfurls,
In the face of uncertainty, hope persists and swirls.
In the Spanish desert, where dreams come alive,
Spaghetti cowboys script their tales, their essence thrives.
Onward, cowboys, in your ceaseless ride,
Gallop towards the horizon, fear cast aside.
For in the Spanish desert, their legend shall endure,
Spaghetti cowboys, the epitome of freedom pure.
