Jarrod, Jarrod, the lawyer man
Taxes, crime, land is his game
Loving and passionate
Fatherly and unbiased
Jarrod Barkley is his name
Nick, Nick, the tender rancher
Branding, fencing, roping is his game
Tender on the inside,
Rough on the outside,
Nick Barkley is his name
Heath, Heath the lost son
Bustin’ broncs is his game
Loving and quiet
Slow to anger
Heath Barkley is his name
Gene, Gene the forgotten son
Medicine is his game
We don’t know much
As he disappeared soon after
Eugene Barkley was his name
Barkleys, Barkleys
everywhere
Ranching is their game
Nick and Heath share the land
Jarrod and Eugene take up the slack
Barkley is their name.
Victoria and Audra, the Barkley women
Duty and fun are their games
Victoria is the matriarch
Audra is the daughter
Victoria and Audra are their names.
Stockton, Stockton, the Californian town
Where ranching is the game
Cattle and horses
And sometimes sheep
Make fun of the family name
People, People, on the Barkley ranch
Where working is the game
Danger and violence
Playing to win
The Barkley Ranch is the name.
Leona, Leona, the Big Valley Fan
where writing is the game
Loving to write,
And having fun
Heathisforme is her name!
